Over 12 hours? With Debian, you could have it up in less than 3...

last time i installed a base debian system, it took all of 7 mintues.

add everything you need to compile showeq via net install on a cable modem, and you can do it in 30-45 minutes :)

Well yeah; I was accounting for a total lack of familiarity with the system :)

(i should have posted this in help now that i think of it, sorry)

Hey Casey,

I recently got back into EQ and to my delight saw that Seq was working
again. I switched to debian awhile ago from redhat and i'm having trouble
compiling showeq due to problems with the qt libs. I tried getting them
off your site, however they seem to not be there anymore. Is there
anyway to get them other than through the ftp?

Thanks,

Darbin

Edit : here's the debug output, i'm using libqt3-mt and libqt3-mt-dev :

IIRC those errors are probably due to which compiler was used to compile QT versus compiling SEQ. Both QT and SEQ need to be compiled with gcc > 3
