Currently In opt there is an existing open openvsiwtch tarball, but it seems to be for a slightly older version. I've copied the newest stable version from the openvswitch website. 
{{{
sudo wget http://openvswitch.org/releases/openvswitch-1.1.0pre2.tar.gz

Pkg-configure was installed as well as libssl-dev. Make completed with out complaint. I've attached the config.log for comparison.
