Eterm is awful cool. One problem, though, is getting the Imlib2 and Freetype dependencies worked out. I'm assuming that Freetype2 is installed and running, as well as dependencies for KDE. This should be the case for most distributions and if you follow the BLFS instructions for KDE. Also, check out an article from 2001 on NetAdminTools here. Freetype1 and Freetype2 should run side by side OK. I've compiled Freetype2 in with X. Warning: do not recompile Freetype2 after you built it in to X, or the libraries won't work right. OK. On to Eterm. First, grab the sources:
Eterm
Imlib2
Freetype
Throw the sources in, say, /usr/src, and install:
[/usr/src]# ls
Eterm-0.9.2.tar.gz freetype-1.3.1.tar.gz
imlib2-1.0.6.tar.gz
[/usr/src]# for i in *
> do
> tar -xzf $i
> done
[/usr/src]#
[/usr/src]# ls
Eterm-0.9.2 freetype-1.3.1.tar.gz
Eterm-0.9.2.tar.gz imlib2-1.0.6
freetype-1.3.1 imlib2-1.0.6.tar.gz
[/usr/src]# cd freetype*
# ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
# cd ..
# cd imlib2*
# CFLAGS='-L../src/.libs' ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make && make install
# cd ..
# cd Et*
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
.

The tricky part above is the CFLAGS line. Imlib2 tries to find itself and can't during the compile. Without that line, you will get an error saying /usr/bin/ld cannot find -lImlib2.
