Dear Axel,
Meanwhile I have installed openSUSE 11.3 64bit on my MacBookPro, and have installed the binary “root_v5.27.04.Linux-slc5_amd64-gcc4.3.tar.gz”.
As you can se from the following error message, I am not even able to run the tutorials:
root [0] .x demos.C
root [1] dlopen error: libjpeg.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Load Error: Failed to load Dynamic link library /home/rabbitus/ROOT/SLC5/root/lib/libASImage.so
