make builds Irrlicht as a static library by default. So the message is correct, there is no shared object. You have to use another make target to build Irrlicht as shared library.
Makefile wrote:
# If you want Irrlicht to be compiled as shared lib (libIrrlicht.so.versionnumber), then run:
#
# make sharedlib
# make install
I have some problems as well (CAn't get to the computer untill thursday)
It is something about it not being able to find some folder (Think it was x11/vidmode <---or something like that ^^*)
No, it's about a wrongly used parameter, which is not ignored by the latest gcc anymore. Just remove those parameters from the Makefile and it should work.
