2b) now to unzip, should I use CLI or terminal? What is the preferred way to select CLI and what syntax returns to Desktop from CLI?

TCP Forum,
I've been told CLI is much better than terminal! I use terminal 100% w/TCP, since it's a simple click on the terminal icon. Please provide an example to unzip svgalib w/CLI?
Cheers!

I would just try make install, if it does something you don't like, you can reboot and the system will be as it was before.

4) compile
make install

--- Code: ---tc@box:~/svgalib$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
tc@box:~/svgalib$

Hi,
Obviously, 'make install' does not compile svgalib. What can be missing?

Funny to find this when reading up forum posts while finally being logged in under svgalib after endless fiddling around.
Cherrypicking the svgalib package from Slackware current in package browser and then hacking to adapt it to Core did the job for me.
So much for the good news...
The really bad news is that I could not find any way in endless hours of trial and error to prevent Arachne from segfaulting (binary as provided from Glenn's site).
I can't really find why it segfaults each time, neither with trial and error of countless config combinations, nor with strace.
When I became desperate and couldn't really understand if the cause of failure is in svgalib or arachne, I cherrypicked links built with svgalib support as well from Slackware's package browser, and I must say it works like a charm!
Admittedly my skills of using strace are very limited, but at least the way I ran it, I found that when running links under strace it would actually fail to start, while per se it works perfectly well.
Not sure if that is my bad use of strace (options) or a particularity when starting svgalib apps with strace on a framebuffer console.
Therefore I have given up to run arachne with strace.

CLI (console mode) means you don't have a desktop, just a black screen with text. There is nothing wrong with using
a terminal. One is not better than the other. Arachne is meant to run in a console and will not run in a terminal om a
desktop. While Arachne appears to be active again, Linux support has been dropped, see:
http://glennmcc.org/
I tried building svgalib and while it built libvgagl.so, it seems to fail to create libvga.so. I think you might want to
consider using a browser that has better Linux support.

You forgot to change into the svgalib-1-master directory after unzipping the zip file.
