Here is what I get when I try to make install fahmon.

ddh@Q6600L23A:~/FahMon-2.3.1$ make install

I have tried a few times and this is as far as I get. Going by the guide on the above post.

Also, I used the restricted driver for my 7300gt and now I have no selection for screen resolution above 1024x780. I have searched for a fix for this, but no luck yet.
