[Haskell-cafe] Missing a "Deriving"?

Still stumped. Maybe and [] are in the same MonadPlus monad, but how do I make monad Failable understand mplus?

I'm now getting this error upon loading:


Prelude> :l graph5
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( graph5.hs, interpreted )

graph5.hs:36:4: `mplus' is not a (visible) method of class `Monad'
Failed, modules loaded: none.
Prelude> 



Complete code follows.

=========================

import Monad

data Failable a = Success a | Fail String deriving (Show)

data Graph v e = Graph [(Int,v)] [(Int,Int,e)]

{-
class Computation c where
    success :: a -> c a
    failure :: String -> c a
    augment :: c a -> (a -> c b) -> c b
    combine :: c a -> c a -> c a

instance Computation Maybe
 where
    success = Just
    failure = const Nothing
    augment (Just x) f = f x
    augment Nothing _ = Nothing
    combine Nothing y = y
    combine x _ = x

instance Computation Failable where
    success = Success
    failure = Fail
    augment (Success x) f = f x
    augment (Fail s) _ = Fail s
    combine (Fail _) y = y
    combine x _ = x
-}

instance Monad Failable where
    return = Success
    fail = Fail
    (>>=) (Success x) f = f x
    (>>=) (Fail s) _ = Fail s
    mplus (Fail _) y = y
    mplus x _ = x

{-
instance Computation [] where
    success a =
 [a]
    failure = const []
    augment l f = concat (map f l)
    combine = (++)


searchAll g@(Graph vl el) src dst
    | src == dst = success [src]
    | otherwise = search' el
    where search' [] = failure "no path"
          search' ((u,v,_):es)
              | src == u = (searchAll g v dst `augment`
                             (success . (u:)))
                            `combine` search'
 es
              | otherwise = search' es
-}

searchAll g@(Graph vl el) src dst
    | src == dst = return [src]
    | otherwise = search' el
    where search' [] = fail "no path"
          search' ((u,v,_):es)
              | src == u = (searchAll g v dst >>=
                             (return . (u:)))
                            `mplus` search'
 es
              | otherwise = search' es
