I wish you sent this e-mail out early today. :)  I had the same problem with
the qt. I spent about an hour trying to figure it out. I downloaded the qt
package from current and it fixed it. On another note I had to remove the
Slackware package for ALAS and rebuild it source for my SB live card. Other
then that I had no problems getting it working with Slackware.
