What software do I use? When I was still stuck with Windows, I preffered to make use of Swish, though I also could use Macroedia Flash if required. Now I have made the switch, what software could I use? I have yet to find one.

I downloaded it. Problem I am having now is the installation. When I try to make, I keep getting this error: make: *** No rule to make target `/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.
What do I do?

Rather than trying to compile it yourself, download the pre-compiled binary. I see that you are running ubuntu which is debian based so download the .deb from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/f4l/f4l_0.2-1_i386.deb?download
and install with "sudo dpkg -i f4l_0.2-1_i386.deb"

Looks like you may need to install/upgrade some packages with apt-get....

Apt-get? I am thinking of reinstalling the OS before doing that. What do you think?

Reinstalling? You shouldn't be afraid of apt-get....it is one of the best things about ubuntu/debian.

If you wanted to upgrade your whole system:
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade

NB "apt-get update" is only required once per session as it just updates the list of packages and their versions.

If you wanted to upgrade just libc6 (as required from your output above) and any dependencies:
# apt-get upgrade libc6

If you wanted to install something new (eg libqt3c102-mt from the output above):
# apt-get install libqt3c102-mt

Before using apt-get, make sure you read the ubuntu unoffical faq, especially the part regarding "How to add extra repositories?". The FAQ is pretty good and you might also find it useful for installing other applications.
