A while ago I got dialogic to work on Debian. The trick was that I
needed to setup redhat in a chroot environment and use the compiler
there. For some reason the compiler in Debian just resulted in the
code segfaulting. Amazingly, once it's compiled in the Redhat chroot,
you can just run it under Debian no hassles.

Don't ask me how to set it up though, it's over two years ago and I
havn't touched it since :) Just a hint though to get you started.

Hope this helps,
