In the specific case of the laptop that I was able to use for the most 
complete set of tests that is a very clean system- it's had repeated 
ab-initio Debian "Lennys" installed onto it and it's not even got 
significant development files- the test programs were moved over as 
binaries.

I'm fairly happy compiling from scratch- what sources do I need, what 
(Debian) development packages am I likely to require, is this from GUI 
or from command line and in either case what special instructions?
