CentOS 5 Hardware :: Cannot Compile The Rocketraid Driver
May 17, 2009
I'm trying to compile Rocketraid 2310 driver v2.2 on CentOS 5.3 x86_64 (kernel 2.6.18-128.el5). When I run make I get the following:
make KERNELDIR=/lib/modules/2.6.18-128.el5/build/ ARCH=x86_64
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-128.el5-x86_64'

I have installed a RocketRAID 2300 card on a computer to have enough SATA ports to build a RAID 5 for redundant storage. The card support�s RHEL and CentOS up to version 5.3 however I�m trying to install it on CentOS 5.4 x86_64 if that�s possible. I have tried every way the user manual list�s to install the card�s driver on a new or existing installation except building the driver module manually into the kernel (I have no experience doing that yet). I am able to load the drivers from the diskette but when I get to the window Update Disk Source, the installer refuses to take the driver diskette. I've gone through the support information on HighPoint�s website, however have found no reference to CentOS 5.4 or anything else that could help me yet. My next step is going to be to downgrade to CentOS 5.3 x86_64 to see if I can use the driver diskette while reinstalling the OS.
My motherboard already has onboard SATA ports to the CentOS 5.4 installer detect and installs the sata_nv drivers but I don�t have access to the RAID card with those drivers.
I had a fedora 11 on a IDE HDD and a raid 5 with 4 SATA HDD with a rocketraid card 1640 After a crash of my HDD, i try too install a centos 5 on a new HDD and the problem is to install a raid 5 without loosing my datas who are on the raid.
I have a rocketraid 2640x4 with 2 500gb HDDs configured in my system. I also have a 3.5" usb floppy disk plugged in with the SCSI drivers When I boot the RHEL 5.5 x86 32 bit installer, i type in "linux dd" at the first screen. Then it asks me to load my drivers via the floppy disk which i do. When i get to the installation page of Linux after entering my serial key, it is not able to detect my HDD so i am unable to proceed. I have tried using drivers for RHEL 5, 5.1 and 5.2. There are no drivers for 5.5.
i'm trying to compile a driver module on ubuntu 10.10 . initially i was getting a lot of include file errors. but then when i added the include path. but after doing that i was getting a series of errors which i have no idea how to solve and it wont fit in one page. i've followed the same way how it is given in the tutorials online but still i'm not able to get it done. Is there any simple method to do this? is there something that i shouldn't do.
I know this isn't the place for this but I am having trouble with my wireless with Linux mint but ubuntu forums feels more friendly and knowledgeable about these problems the wireless adapter in question is a HornetTek HT-H5DN I have been to the company website they do have a driver but I can't compile it due to lack of experience it runs on a Ralink 2720 driver.
I have a conexant modem and i want to make it work(just for fun, i have DSL). The linuxant driver works but i want full 56k. I tried ubuntu [URL]... How to/Conexant and there was alink for some Dell driver. I've compiled and installed the Dell successfully but when i run
I have a Rosewill b/g/n wireless USB adapter. I downloaded the source code of the linux driver from Rosewill website. How do I compile the code and then install the driver? I think that I can just type "make" to compile the code, but, how to install the driver after the compilation?
Use python as example, I have 64bit python 2.4.3 yet I can't found rpm for 32bit one so I try to build it.Use default make or make --enable-readline is ok, python make cannot use CFLAGS, can use OPT and LDFLAGS to add -m32, yetit seems can only search for 64bit lib, or else crush.[Moderator edit: Moved from CentOS-4 to CentOS-5 forum.]
I have a new machine with an Intel 82579lm network card (needs an e1000e driver, I believe). I got Debian installed, but it doesn't have access to the Internet, because it needs a driver for that card. So, I managed to download the card driver on another computer and transfer it to this computer. Problem is that when I run 'make install' for the card driver, it turns out that my Debian install doesn't have 'make'.
I could compile the card source on another computer with Debian. Problem is that computer has a different architecture (old amd 32 bit machine vs. new intel i7 64 bit) than the machine with the problem card. Am guessing that the compiled driver module won't work on a different kind of machine.
Another possibility is to check in synaptic on my old 32-bit machine and use "Generate package download script" to determine where synaptic is getting the 'make' package from and all its dependencies. I also would need to modify the downloads to get the packages for the 64bit machine. *Assuming* that a) the dependencies in Synaptic on the old 32-bit machine will be the same as for a 64bit machine and b) I correctly identify all necessary packages and their proper names for the amd64 architecture, I should be able to move the files to the new machine and compile what I need to compile.
I'm trying to compile the D-Link netcard driver from the official source, and when I first ran "make," I got an error that "make" couldn't be found. So I installed "apt-get install make," then make told me that it needed gcc, I installed "apt-get install gcc." Now make says: make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [LINUX] Error 2 and exits.
I suspect that I need to install some package group which will handle the make and make install (rather than manually trying to fix one hole after another)
when i trying to install NVIDIA drivers i get compile error:
NVIDIA: calling KBUILD... test -e include/linux/autoconf.h -a -e include/config/auto.conf || ( echo; echo " ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid."; echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are mis sing.";
Here any know how to compile the driver file manually?
For example i have been insert the Realtek Ethernet card in my customized kernel and kernel can't detect the card. I know the c file 8139too.c which going to use by the realtek Ethernet card.but i don't know to how to compile the file and make this as a kernel module..
I have a Alfa AWUS036NH that I have downloaded the lastest drivers from Alfa. I have read for 3 days straight and tryed so many fixes I cant remember them all. My problem is that it connects then after about 15 minutes the connection degrades and i have to unplug and replug in and then it goes down sooner each time. I have edited the black list and blacklisted all the 2870 chipsets as mine has 3070 chipset. once i edited the blacklist I can no longer boot into linux unless I unplug my Alfa (usb) and then once I am into the UI I can plug it back in but the wirless management client up by the top right of my screen that came with ubuntu no longer sees the card and when I do the show devices command from a terminal it doesn't show the adapter either. I also have a wired eth0 that works and a wireless wlan0 thats an internal Aethros that works. After blacklisting though it no longer shows it's name in the wireless manager but does show the connections. I am getting errors when trying to compile the manufactors drivers. I have renamed the 2 files as per several posts and still errors. I have read it works if you load the intel 2200 drivers. I got the compiler and everything but am missing the ieee80211 wireless what evers to compile and make it work. I am at wits end at what to do now to fix it.
I'm working with a GuruPlug...maybe you've heard of them.I'm trying to get EasyCap DC60 drivers installed on it(easycap_dc60.0.9.tar.gz), but in the README file I see that the "header files" must be present.nfortunately they are not. This little wall wart runs Debian/Lenny, probably some server oriented build.uname -r reports:2.6.32-00007-g56678ecIt boots to RunLevel 2 and stays there, incidentally.I tried apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) but I am told "file not found" or something similar
I am new to the embedded domain.I am learning about cross compilation. Just i want to compile an application and an driver file for ARM platform. I have downloaded the toolchain binaries from [URL]..
I've been trying to make/compile the driver for a wireless card. The card is usb, it's titled Micronext MN-WD550M and seems to use the rtl8712 driver.Firstly, though I did this once two years ago I seem to have completely forgotten how to install a driver in ubuntu.
Secondly, I'm not sure I have the right driver anyway since in the notes in the readme it says it is for i386 (I run amd 64). The driver is here [URL] Thirdly, after clicking through various readmes and documentation without feeling any more intelligent, I then tried using ndiswrapper to install a windows driver and ubuntu would crash if the usb wireless card was plugged in. Blarg.I feel like this should be so simple I'm going to make a clean installation of ubuntu 10.10 shortly (for various unrelated reasons) so anything I messed up with ndiswrapper should be back to normal.
I have several servers running 3ware 9750 raid controller cards. The 9750 does not have a driver built into the linux kernel and must be manually added during installation. This hasn't been a problem as I had a driver compiled for the kernel versions I was using.
There isn't a driver available precompiled for 10.04.3. I would like to compile one from the source code I downloaded from the manufacturer, but I am not sure where to start. I've looked for some sort of walkthrough or directions, but I haven't had any luck. I've compiled and installed software from source, but I have a feeling that drivers are probably a bit more complicated, especially since I will need to compile the driver on a system that does not have the same kernel version.
When I only change a driver file manually, for example /newkernel/linux-source-.6.32/drivers/gpu/drm/i915_drv.h, do I need to run "make config" or similar like "make menuconfig" or can I just skip? I mean these steps:
I have bought a BrotherHL-1110 laser printer. But there is no driver on my system. I have downloaded source code but don't understand how to compile it. (
It does only exist driver-packages for 32 bits: hl1110cupswrapper-3.0.1-1.i386.deb and hl1110lpr-3.0.1-1.i386.deb)
My system is: Release 7.8 (wheezy) 64-bit Kernel Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 GNOME 3.4.2 AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 245 Processor × 2
The source code contain the following files: -> pwd /home/joe/Desktop/BrotherHL-1110/hl1110cupswrapper-GPL_src-3.0.1-1
-> ls -R .: brcupsconfig Copying filter PPD

How do I compile and install it on my computer ? ( Or get the printer working ? )
1. Installed a fresh 10.10 and upgraded all packages (via Ethernet). 2. Downloaded latest drivers from ASUS webiste (DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422) 3. Unpacked and tried to compile:
The wireless card is working with the driver rt2870sta, but I've read not all the capabilities of the device is unleash unless the native driver is used.
I am attempting to load CentOS 5 on an Acer 6900 desktop and I'm not even getting out of the starting gate. I am familiar with using linux but not the install procedure which is why I am beginning to dive into this. However, when I bring the system up off the Linux boot disk and go to install it's not even giving me the option of the controller so I can begin installing the os from the dvd-rom. This is what acer lists as the controller for the 6900: ich8 serial ata storage controller 2820 linux driver. I cannot find this driver for linux anywhere.
i upgrade a machine running centos 5.4 to 5.5 this morning. After the update the X start i saw the pointer and a black backgroud only the desktop doesn't appear.The machine is a barebone with this configuration
I have Centos5.4 loaded on a late 2008 MACBOOK Pro and would like to get wireless working. I've attempted to download the broadcom driver and create a driver module with no luck.
I have CentOS 5 x64 installed. I would like to know if --ignoreos is enough to bypass a basic package who installs a file into /usr/bin, for example. Is there a way to create an RPM designed for CentOS4, without actually installing it and run the spec file on it?
