You may need to try re-running configure with a --with-geosconfig
parameter.
[root@zoa-project postgis-1.4.1]#

so determine geos-config is no on the computer (results below are from
unzipped install package - geos is not "installed")

[root@zoa-project postgis-1.4.1]# find / | egrep -i geos-config
/usr/local/geos-3.2.0/tools/geos-config.in
/usr/local/geos-3.2.0/tools/geos-config
[root@zoa-project postgis-1.4.1]#

so try to install geos

[root@zoa-project geos-3.2.0]# ./configure

a lot of stuff goes by - no warnings - no errors

Don't mean to keep asking the same question over and over, I'm new at
this. Happy New Year, mine would be much happier if I could have this
all installed now!!
