David;

Anyway, thanks for all your help. Maybe I'll have some time on the
weekend to try downloading the source and compiling it.

I think you should be fine. In case it fails; copy any messages GCC gives and send them here. There are only a few things that could be missing and GCC's output will tell us what they are. It does look like Xandros might be a bit out of date but luckily for you there were just some complaints that the audio drivers we use are a bit out of date as well :-).


Yours,
Kas.
