Okay, I have the WX issue for aMule, so the "common problems" thread seemed particularly useful.
In particular:
wx messed up by many distros:
If you are running a rpm-based distro and amule crashes on you first try this:
Take a look at the output of 'rpm -qa | grep wx'. If it says something like 'wxGTK-2.4.2-4.1.fc2.fr' (the interesting part here is the 'fc2' for 'Fedora Core 2') or any other hint about your distro please uninstall your wx rpms and install the ones from here: http://www.amule.org/files/files.php?cat=12
The wx-rpms provided on this page should work with every rpm-based distro.
However, the link pointed nowhere:

There's something wrong somewhere. Where?
Any help much appreciated.
