Important hints...

...about compiling:

The program works with threads. Therefore you need thread-safe libraries. That seems to be a big problem with the X11-library. Ali found in the internet XFree86-3.3-libs.README (Which descibes, how to generate thread-safe X-libraries) and here is the directory with this README and precompiled X-libs (only dynamically).

...about starting:

You should be root for accessing the devices. The program reads directly from the devices independent from filesystems. There could be bugs, so it's possible that a device is damaged. There's no warranty for nothing! The static linked version runs even at non-X-hosts, you only need a xserver for showing the window :-)
If media devices are not recognized, it possibly helps inserting a medium. If you use modules try accessing the non-recognized devices before starting the program or loading the modules by hand.

...about the purpose:

We wanted to create a graphic LINUX-tool similar to the Adaptec-Bench for windows but not restricted to Adaptec-managed devices. We don't want to make a better bonnie, because bonnie calculates the speed of a filesystem after a wile. We want to see immediately the speed of a device an the interaction of the devices.
