I get always alot of problems with the SDK stuff, to be able to build the whole thing, just delete also those. The best way to delete those kind of things from the makefiles: - go to the upper directory of abrowser - edit Makefile - delete every thing what is called "abrowser" Do the same for every directory you want to get rid of. khamis
