I can't tell from the error messages, but it may be that you have a permission problem. You may need to use su to do your make-ing as root.

The first error about "/usr/bin/make not OK" suggests to me that you can't even run make with your present permissions. This could arise if you have chosen very stringent default permissions for your files, in which case your permissions would default to 0700, "-rwx------". This means that only root would be able to run or even see its files.

You can check for this situation by typing the following: 'l /usr/bin/make', of course omitting the single-quotes. Look at the resulting listing, if any. If you get an error "Permission denied", then your default permissions are too stringent, and non-root users can't see or execute files owned by root. You'll need to change the permissions as root. If you *do* get a listing, it will probably resemble something like this: -rwxr--r--. If you only see one 'x', then you again need to give execute permissions to non-root users.

Finally, if you get a "No such file or directory" error, you may need to go back to your YaST installation and make sure you install the required programs. Check under "development" and make sure you have installed Perl, make, gcc, and the other programs needed to compile source code.
