Briefly: you need to set up GhostScript to translate the graphics into
GIF, and (possibly) set a few environmental variables. The defaults
are such that if you have GS installed in the 'right' place and do
nothing else, then you get clickable maps. My guess is that you're
missing ghostscript! It's a GNU program, available from many places.
