I have been meaning to do this for awhile. I have a relatively decent machine currently running FreeNAS, a BSD based NAS system. It works great as a NAS box, but now I want it to do more. I want it to act as a file server/NAS, also as a router for my home network, so obviously I will add a second ethernet port as well as wireless "N" capability. As a router, I want to have fine control over my home computers. And, I have a multiple camera security setup, using Motion, that I want to run on this machine 24/7. I know Motion doesn't take a huge amount of horsepower, since I am currently running it on an inexpensive laptop running Squeeze.
What I would like advice on is how some other people on this forum would accomplish this. FreeNAS works great for what it was designed for, as well as IPCop, but neither will do all that I want, so I plan to run Debian on it, most likely Squeeze, as it will soon be Stable.
Im trying to build ffmepg with shared lib under ubuntu 8.04 hardy. Im was following these instructions :
>> Install FFmpeg and x264 on Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS <<
But it was not for shared library. So in the part 7. I added "--enable-shared" to the "configure" command but when I compile ("make") I ve got an error:
"
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libopencore-amrnb.a(wrapper.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libopencore-amrnb.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
[code]...
I read another thread saying how to resolve this error :
>> trouble with ffmpeg and shared libs <<
but its still make the error when i follow these instructions...
I decided to add "--enable-pic" flag to "configure" but the error still happen.
is it possible to build gnome 3 on squeeze? if yes, how do i do it?

I,m trying to build firefox-3.6 from source but it ends with the following error :
Using Debian lenny.
I would like to create some packages for programs that use the Git software to manage the source, I want to do this directly using the source code in the Git repo as the source code form the package. Does anyone have any hints or directions on how to do this? I been looking round the web for information about this, but all I seem to find is for about storing and build Debian packages from git, this is not what I want to do as these packages are for personal use and I have no need for this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on making a audio interface work with a otherwise working debian desktop (its actually AVLinux, but its Debian for all intents and purposes). The problem is, the current version of ffado-svn installed (1949, from the experimental repository) has a bug with the firmware on the interface (an Echo Audiofire8) preventing me from using high sample rates, so I need to install a more recent version of ffado-svn.I am wondering if there is anyway I can build a current version of ffado-svn into the appropriate debian packages. While I am not familiar with debian, I am familiaux (I use Arch regularly).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm fairly new to Linux. I am trying to build and install the drivers for the ASUS USB-N10 wlan usb dongle, using the newest drivers from the Realtek website. I've never used make before on Linux and am running into what are probably some pretty basic problems, but I'm not sure where to look for the answers. I used aptitude to install the "make" and "build-essential" packages. I unpacked the drivers using Archive Manager. I changed to the driver directory and ran "make". It stopped with "No such file or directory." I became superuser and ran make, in case it had permission problems when creating the directory.
Here are the results.

I'm trying to build the kernel module for dvbhdhomerun. The problem is the linux kernel headers provided by Debian do not have the dvb header files. Trying to set up my own kernel source tree to use is not working out so well.
I'm following the instructions in the Debian section here: [URL] ....
My first try compiled, but the modules ender up under /lib/modules/3.2.51/extra instead of /lib/modules/3.2.0-4-amd64/extra. Why?
I tried to start over, but noticed this while running apt-get source linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64:

I am attempting to install the Linuxant ALSA driver to make my sound work properly (speakers muting when headphones plugged in). This worked on Lucid, but on Maverick the installation fails at the "building modules" stage. It directs me to a logfile, which I have reproduced here:

rm -f modules/*.o modules/*.ko
rm -f *~ out.txt *.orig *.rej .#* .gdb_history
rm -f doc/*~

rm -f utils/alsa-driver.spec .....
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic'
make: *** [compile] Error 2
The package partially installed I have no sound at all. I have kernel headers and every related -dev package I can think of installed. I'm running 64-bit; could that be an issue?
I upgraded my kernel in my Debian Lenny to version 2.6.32-bpo.4-amd64 to fix a problem with a software and ALSA-related issues. The thing is that now, when I boot, eth1 is not enabled and I have to "load" (I guess) the driver each time. To do this, I go to the folder where all the files for the drivers are and I run:
modprobe lib80211
and then
insmod wl.ko
That I got from the readme file. That gets the wireless working perfectly again, but when I reboot the wireless is dead again and I have to run the commands above again. I imagine that what I should do is to build the driver again, for my new kernel. However, according to the readme file, before I need to install linux-headers-generic and build-essential. With build-essential, it says it's already the newest version, and with the linux-headers, I don't know which one should I install for my kernel! I thought it would be the linux-headers-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64, but when I tried that, this is what happened:
debian:/home/hernan/Programas/hybrid_wl# apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64

So the warning says something about the MODULE_LICENSE being missing... how to build the driver again to make it load each time I boot?

I am trying to build architecture specific binaries of gtk-sharp2. So far I have been unable to get gtk-sharp2 to build even without specifying a specific architecture. I got the source with apt-get source gtk-sharp2 and attempted ./configure, make, but it fails to build with the error message:
Code: Select allNo rule to make target 'thread.c', needed by 'thread.lo'.
I've also tried downloading the source directly from the mono project [URL] ...., but when building it fails with
Code: Select all#error "Only <glib.h> can be included directly."
This site [URL] .... provides a patch to fix the error, but when I applied it I got the same error.
I think the Debian version applied the patch correctly, but for some reason I still get that other error message.
These message outputted by configure may point to the problem:
"checking if gcc supports -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions... no"
"./configure: line 12920: enable_msi: command not found"
when i ran jhbuild build as a normal user, i found below messages before it failed

How do I force recompilation of the kernel .deb packages. After a small change I make to the sources without having to clean the sources and recompile the whole kernel again?
Code: Select all$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_i386_none_686
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_i386_none_686 binary-indep
Calling the second command again does not recompile the modified code, just recreates the .deb packages.
If I use:
Code: Select all$ make -f debian/rules clean before the build command, then it will recompile everything which takes ages.
How can I force recompilation of the files/objects I changed (and dependencies)?
I use this guide: [URL] .... ('Building only a single kernel variant' section)

I am fairly new to Linux and have been striking hassles with my AWUS036H (RTL8187) under Debian Lenny. The standard (built in) driver works but reception is pathetic compared to the same card under Backtrack 4 or even Windows 7. I have tried to build drivers which I got from the Alfa website, the Realtek website and also the Linux Wireless project page. All of them fail during Make with an Error 2. I don't have the error in front of me (had to go back to Windows for the moment) but it is identical to the one this guy gets:

So I'm building a custom kernel cuz I want the fbcondecor patch in my kernel. I use the same .config that 2.6.32 debian kernel package comes with. This kernel runs perfectly. I pass --initrd to make-kpkg when building the package but no initrd is built when I install it so I have to make it using "mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.33 2.6.33" to get it to boot. Now when I try to build the nvidia drivers it complains it can't find the source. I did build kernel_headers and installed them also the source is in /usr/src/linux. I also tried to specify the path by passing --kernel-source-path= to the nvidia script but no change. What is going on? I've done this fifty times before and never had any problems. Has there been some changes to how debian kernel packages are built? EDIT: Just thought I'd add some info about the steps I took.
Code:
tar xjvf linux-2.6.33.tar.bz2
ln -s linux-2.6.33 linux
cd linux
patch -p1 < ../fbcondecor-0.9.6-2.6.33-rc7.patch
cp /boot/config-2.6.32-trunk-686 ./.config
make menuconfig Loaded .config then I removed support for maxtorfb, tile blitting and some sirrusfb thing, nothing thats relevant to my system. Changed cpu from Pentium 4 to Core 2 and added framebuffer decor
support from my patch, exited and saved. Then:

EDIT2: I have now tried to build 2.6.32.8 in the same way with the same strange results, anyone have any thoughts as to what I'm doing wrong just throw it at me, I'm getting desperate and running out of ideas. I've checked all the kernel source symlinks and everything looks good.
