manage to solve it by typing this

CODE
sudo apt-get build-dep conky

build-dep means it will build all the dependencies required to build the program.

./configure is a command which will configure the makefile script such as location to install the program, etc. It will also check for all the required dependencies and tools to build the program. But some source code doesn't provide this. Either it's using scons than make or the makefile is already configured.

thank you hzu. biggrin.gif

This might be off-topic(maybe not), but why most of you(if not all), really wanted to install all those docks, custom panels, etc.?

Just curious.

for me.

1st. its a fun way to learn the basic steps of how linux works (since im new). rclxm9.gif
