Problems installing phpmyadmin

Hi All

I'm getting this error when I try to view mysite/phpmyadmin:

phpMyAdmin - Error
Cannot load mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration documentation.

The documentation says this:

"[1.20] I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration".
To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called "MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but failed. "

I'm using Slackware 10.2, and I installed both MySQL and PHP from packages from LinuxPackages.net.

Any ideas?

when you compile php, enable --with-mysql option

Here is my phpinfo:

http://mail.ukstokes.com/test.php

The configure statement shows it was configured with the --with-mysql option, byt MySQL does not appear in the PHP Info!! Is there something wrong in this statement?

Code:
