I can help you for sure. Please read this link first:
http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Compilation_Installation

Get aMule tarball, e.g.:
$ wget http://www.hirnriss.net/files/cvs/aMule-cvs-20050224.tar.bz2

Open aMule tarball in a directory, configure and make.
Then, and only then, as root do make install:
$ tar zxvf aMule-cvs-20050219.tar.bz2
$ cd amule-cvs
$ ./configure --enable-debug --disable-optimize --enable-cas (and any other options you might want)
$ make
$ su
$ make install

That should be enough.
And never run aMule as a root user, always as a normal user.
Tell me what happened.

In case of trouble, read this to learn how to post usefull backtraces:

Cheers!

Man, I can't beleive, you don't have the compiler installed! I did not know that a linux distro would come with it uninstalled...

I can't help you a lot with suse, but I use FC3, which is rpm based too. You have to install g++, binutils, and probably some libraries. Try to look at your distro docs to see which packages you have to install to be able to compile stuff.

Cheers!

Hi buddy

Hope your OK?

I don't have any documents for my distro as I was passed the CD by a friend

I am running Suse 9.1 with kernel i386 I can update the kernel but when I do there appears to be a bug in it which makes the cd's open continually and I don't have the expertise to pull the OS apart to find which program is sending the eject command.

What I will do is look for g++, binutils for Suse 9.1 i386 RPM and try that. I will get back to you when i've sorted something.

To be able to preview a video file you have to already have downloaded the first chunk of it because there are important header information at the beginning of the file on which codecs to use to show it etc...

For that reason the 'preview' item is grayed out if the first chunk of the file has not been downloaded yet.
