Cool, that did it, thanks!
For the mouse example, I also had to install the package, libxtst-dev,
which took me a few minutes to figure out. :)
Looking forward to doing some more work with this.

Glad it helped.

I'm subscribed to the rss feed for your blog at least but I'll be
checking the sourceforge site more often.  I like to use the mailing
list for these kinds of questions because in my experience it helps a
lot when you're googling for answers!

In any case I unfortunately didn't have much time for the Falcon in
the last few months but I'm hoping to spend some more time with it
soon.  Not being able to use it because I don't have Windows installed
on my laptop is starting to get on my nerves.. :)
