[3ddesktop-dev] compile error?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get into the wonders of a 3D pagers :)
Here follows a quick description of my system:
- Linux Mandrake 8.2 (no KDE)
- gcc 3.0.4
- autoconf version is strange. base package is 2.13 but I also have an 
autoconf2.5-2.52d package installed, which bizarelly depends on the former
- automake 1.5
- Mesa & co is 4.0.1
- GLUT is installed, but my X setup uses GLX so I assume that works too (nVidia 
drivers)
- not sure about XF86VidMode extensions, if there is any way I can check? 
(think so)
- Imlib2 1.0.4

As it turns out, bad side of Mandrake, it's best to get their cooker packages 
to upgrade them, and I believe these are the latest for 8.2. If some of these 
are a definite no-go for 3ddesktop, please ignore the rest of this email and 
inform me.

Still there?
Now, during the compile of version 0.2.1 (from the tarball) I consistently get 
the following output:

In file included from arrange.hpp:29,
                 from 3ddeskd.cpp:56:
xutil.hpp:73:syntax error before '*' token
make[1]: *** [3ddeskd.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2


Anyone else got this issue before?
I would look at the source code, but my C++ is as bad as anyone's Tswana (if 
anyoen knows what I'm talking about, congrats), so I'm at a bit of a loss here. 
What could be the causes for this? Probably not more than a glitch in the 
source file?

thanks for any help!

Michael
