Hi,
 
As a casual user of CLIM I find the most frustrating problem is just downloading all the proper pieces and placing them where they can be used.  If someone would take the time to create a pdf of step by step instructions on where to go, what to download, and the required destinations it would be most helpful.  I know some things like this exist but many seem out of date and don’t really work that well.
 
I currently use SBCL on a Fedora 12 machine.

Bill,
       in my case using Quicklisp works with no problems. I'm on an Ubuntu Machine and SBCL.

First install quicklisp, if you haven't already: http://www.quicklisp.org.

Then evaluate:

(ql:quickload :mcclim)

For better looking fonts, evaluate:

(ql:quickload :mcclim-truetype)

To run the examples:

(ql:quickload :clim-examples) and then:
(clim-demo::demodemo)

Cheers,

Mariano
