I've used linux on an off for about a year now, but still don't know much other than the bare minimum. The plasmoids and widgets in kde4.1 look pretty appealing but i can't seem to install any of them.
http://sathyasays.com/2008/09/01/how...ets-in-kde-41/
following that tutorial i entered all the commands
* tar -xvf plasmoid.tar.gz
* cd plasmoid
* mkdir build
* cd build
* cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config –prefix` ..
* make
* sudo make install OR su -c “make install”
here is what i get
username@ubuntu:~/Desktop/emailnotify/build$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config –prefix` ..
kde4-config: Unexpected argument '–prefix'.
kde4-config: Use --help to get a list of available command line options.

then when i enter the make commmand i get
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
what am i doing wrong? Also widgets for mac osx seem to download fine but anywhere there is a field to enter text, i can select the field box but it wont recognize that im typing anything.
I was also wondering how in the world i can set up activities in intrepid ibex.
thank you guys in advance.

Sorry if I'm making a completely elementary mistake but there's no denying that i'm not very linux savvy.
