Other software

Hope I am in the right section for this.
I have Open Suse 11 installed and am trying to get some of my Ham Radio software up and running but have a problem. They are not in rpm’s, but in tar.gz format. I can unzip , or untar, them and do a ./configure and this goes OK with no errors, but when I type “make” it says “command not found” Same on each one, Is there something I don’t have installed?

Yes, make.

And you will also need the C compiler next. Go to YaST and select to install the C development tools (or something like that) pattern. I hope you have the repositories set up. If not, go to Repositories in YaST and select OSS and non-OSS at least.
