I've made some progress by getting c and c++ compiler packages, gettext packages, etc...Now I get a new error 2:

Where am I going wrong now?

looks like you need to install the kernel headers (.h files)

 

i've no idea how to do that in mandriva but i'd say that it's somewhere in your add/remove packages section

 

cheers
