Thanks Bob.  I spent a great deal of time installing binary packages, and
trying to install the -devel on most, but likely I missed something along
the way.  I have this computer setup awesome, everything is almost exactly
how I want it, this is the only issue I'm having...  I'm sure it has
something to do with my compile.  I'm not a complete noob to linux, but I'm
no expert.  I've used ubunutu, and debian with mythtv and I decided a while
back that I want to move towards the enterprise side of linux so I'm pretty
new to Fedora.  Thanks for the input, everyone.
