As the config.log file he was told to include, and that he did include, says:

        hostname = zt-ThinkCentre-XXXX
        uname -m = i686
        uname -r = 2.6.38-13-generic
        uname -s = Linux
        uname -v = #53-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 28 19:23:39 UTC 2011

so, yes, he's running Linux - in particular, he's running some version of Ubuntu.

Yes, that's why he ran the configure script.

There is, but it might be for tcpdump 4.1.1, for example, rather than 4.2.0 - he might want the newer version.

This is the tcpdump-workers list.
