I'm pretty far from experienced in Linux, this post is really a reminder for myself next time i'm installing, but will hopefully help out some others when they can't get BlitzMax working in Suse.
I have Suse 9.3 installed with all the default packages and a few others (including the nvidia drivers). Initially i got the 'sh: line 1: g++ : command not found' error when building. This was solved by installing:
gcc-c++ - The GNU C++ Compiler
(note: I had previously installed 'gcc - The GNU C Compiler and Support Files' too)
Next i got the error containing '/i586-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLU'. This was solved by installing:
xorg-x11-Mesa-devel - Include Files and Libraries mandatory for Development
Both these packages can be installed through Yast. I hope this may be helpful to somebody, A text file in the blitzmax package with some information on dependencies would probably help the newer linux users, or maybe it's just me ;)
