Before you can compile kpvm you have to install pvm3 and set the 
PVM_ROOT environment variable correctly!
KDE and Qt is also needed!

If you are root just type 
   ./configure && make && make install && ldconfig
and then (if you want) go to kpvm/demos/simple or kpvm/demos/suJOIN
and type
   make
to get a demonstration of kpvms' usage... 

To get all the graphical output to your main X-host install following
line to your $HOME/.pvmprofile
  echo "export DISPLAY=your_main_host:0.0"  >> $HOME/.pvmprofile

If you don't have root-rights you may compile all static
  ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared && make && make install

or install a $HOME/.pvmprofile with a line similar to this:

echo "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=\$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:`pwd`/kpvm/.libs" \
      >> $HOME/.pvmprofile

Also adjust this extended LD_LIBRARY_PATH to your .bashrc, .cshrc or .profile!
And I mean ADJUST, not overwrite .bashrc, .cshrc or .profile!!!
Do this with 
echo "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=\$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:`pwd`/kpvm/.libs" \
      >> $HOME/.bashrc

Attention: you have to restart the pvm-daemon if it is already running!
           you need to open a new login-shell with the new LD_LIBRARY_PATH set!
	   do this eg. by typing "xterm -ls &" and then start the demo from
	   there!
	   If you don't know what I'm talking about log out completely and log
	   in from the very beginning! (everything will be done then!)
	   But you have to install the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to .pvmprofile and
	   .bashrc anyway!
	   
Then (if you want) go to kpvm/demos/simple or kpvm/demos/suJOIN and type
   make
to get a demonstration of kpvms' usage...
