Subject: newbie compile problems... sigh
Hello!

I am brand new to this site. Thank all you clever souls who made this project.

I've been playing MAX since it came out in 1996 (or something) but I'm sick of booting into WinXP just to play.

I'm trying to compile MAXR-0.2.1 on linux. All of the object files compiled successfully, but when it gets to the final linking step, I get this error:

-
make: *** No rule to make target `-lSDL_mixer', needed by `maxr'. Stop.
-

Unfortunately it doesn't show the command it's trying to execute so I can see if it's a syntax problem or something.

I have all the libs correctly installed, but I don't quite understand this error. It seems like a problem with the Makefile, but I don't understand Makefiles too well.

Does anyone have an idea where this error is coming from?

Thank you in advance for any information.

peace and cheer.
