Really, if you want just a "simple demo" just to show off and then take
off your system, I'd go with the RPMs.  If you want this to be a
longer-term investment, go with the CVS tree compiled on your own.
However, there are no guarantees that it will actually work; if you need
them, there are source snapshots at ftp.jimpick.com.  I wrote a CVS guide
that a lot of people have said was very helpful; it's located at:
