i have funpic.org as my host, but on the install page i get this:

PHP installatie
Besturingssysteem
Warning: Die Funktion php_uname(), welche dein Script nutze, wurde aus Sicherheitsgründen deaktiviert und kann nicht genutzt werden. in /usr/export/www/hosting/gupenjanis/include/admin/installer.inc.php on line 81

The rest is fine...

It simply means that this function is disabled for security reasons on your host. But that's no serious problem, as you can see it still works and is not used for important things.

It seems your hoster does not allow .htaccess files on your server. Delete that file.

However you have to make sure that "URL Rewriting" is set to "None" in the installer/configuration, because this will only work with .htaccess.

I'm sure you will find more problems with funpic hosting, they seem to be paranoid about security. :-)
