If the 2.4.24-1 version does not work. I will try the version that you 
recommended. Regarding installing different versions, instead of 
upgrading. Is it possible to install several versions and not have them

I hope the compilation works for this round. I'm about ready to try to 
compile it again. Eventually, it might work for me.
