hwilde@hwilde-r60u:~/carmen/src$ ./configure Using $CC as gcc... Found processor unknown. Congratulations. You are running Linux. Found kernel 2.6.20-16-generic. This doesn't look like SuSE! Searching for canlib... Could not find Kvaser canlib header file. I looked for /usr/include/canlib.h but it does not seem to exist.

Searching for GTK... not found. I tried to execute pkg-config gtk+-2.0 and got this response:

Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

If you do not have graphics, CARMEN's display modules will not compile, but all other modules should compile without problem. Please install gtk 2.0, or re-run ./configure with --nographics.

Address these errors one by one. canlib is not necessary for this example

Install libgtk2.0-dev, or grab everything:

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-* --yes --force-yes
