My config.inc.php is:

<?php $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://74.208.8.137/phpMyAdmin/'; $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'be7f3hk9'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '74.208.8.137'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] = '3306'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysql'; ?>

make it: <?php //$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://74.208.8.137/phpMyAdmin/'; //really needed? $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'be7f3hk9'; $i=1; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysqli';// if available ?>

see http://74.208.8.137/phpmyadmin/documentation/#quick_install or http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/#quick_install or http://wiki.cihar.com/pma/Quick_Install#Manually and better use http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=72909 for your questions

btw. mysql 5.2 isn't fully supported yet
