Manual compiling 

Set the QTDIR-Variable to your actual QT-Distribution, e.g. 

    export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt-2.3.0 (for bash) 
or 
    setenv QTDIR /usr/lib/qt-2.3.0 (for csh) 

Hints : 
(from the testers of openMosixview/Mosixview who compiled it on diffrent 
linux-distributions, thanks again) 
Create the link /usr/lib/qt pointing to your QT-2.3.x installation 
e.g. if QT-2.3.x is installed in /usr/local/qt-2.3.0 

    ln -s /usr/local/qt-2.3.0 /usr/lib/qt 

Then you have to set the QTDIR environment variable to 

    export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt (for bash) 
or 
    setenv QTDIR /usr/lib/qt (for csh) 

After that the rest should work fine: 

    make
    make install


Now copy the openmosixprocs binary on each of your cluster-nodes to /usr/bin/openmosixprocs 

    rcp openmosixprocs/openmosixprocs your_node:/usr/bin/openmosixprocs 

You can now execute mosixview 

    openmosixview
