Where are these files in Fedora Core 3? Assuming they are in a different location on your system, you can try using the "libdir" and "includedir" options to configure to compensate. For example ./configure --libdir=/opt/lib --includedir=/opt/include We may have a problem with the fact that Speech Dispatcher wants the include file to be in the "alsa" subdirectory. Please let me know where your files are on Fedora Core 3 and if the --includedir option helps. Thanks -- Gary Cramblitt (aka PhantomsDad)
