Trying to build a driver for a TV tuner card. When I enter 'make menuconfig', I get this error:
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64' /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/source/scripts/Makefile.build:44: /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/source/scripts/basic/Makefile: No such file or directory make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/source/scripts/basic/Makefile'. Stop. make[2]: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2
Suspect I need another package in addition to linux-headers. Running Squeeze, amd64, KDE.
When configuring a custom kernel using fedoraproject.org instructions, the make menuconfig options for LIRC are not in the .config file anywhere. I checked the kernel tree and all the files are there in the .../drivers/input/lirc subdirectory (I need the lirc_dev and lirc_i2c drivers). I reset the .config to its original settings to make sure I didn't mess up. I also grep'ed the .config file for any LIRC related settings, none found. Also I'm not getting any sound from the radio-aztech driver.
I need to modify fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c to make my modifications. I cannot find any options in 'make menuconfig' to make these files modules rather than compiled elements. I'm thinking these cannot be modules because the file system won't work without open.c and read_write.c. Is this correct - I cannot compile fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c as modules, only as compiled elements? Or, is there some way for a module to overwrite these routines when the module is installed and re-enable the routines when the module is removed?
I'm simply trying to compile a vanilla kernel from Kernel.org, I've done it before, however "make menuconfig" returns an error after I've made my changes to the config file.
Code:
Why is make returning that error? I am using a 64-bit kernel.
I am trying to install a piece of software that uses an install.pl script which looks to /usr/src/linux/include/ for my kernel headers...but it never finds them or that directory/link.
I've run "yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers" so I am pretty sure they are installed.
I have a package that has to configure with "make menuconfig". I want to make this automatically. Usually I save the .config-File and replace the config with a skript, but the package I have to install has no .config. The manuall told me that I have to make the following steps:./configure --with-linux...makemake installIs it possible to use the saved .config-file?
I'm experimenting with 2.6.33-ck1 mainly because I want to try the BFS. I successfully configured and installed the patched kernel, but I'm experiencing various problems on the desktop. The biggest is Chromium not working at all, but there are several others, including graphical glitches in firefox. I'm sure I left some important module off or made a mistake for some settings My question is that is there a 2.6.33-fc12 kernel yet, and does it have a .config available? I'd like to load those settings in menuconfig and use them as a starting point to properly configure and complie a -ck patched kernel.
Search the forums first. Well I did, can't find anything I understand. So please help an ignoramus in simple terms. The problem:- I'm trying to run vmware workstation and I get a desktop box pop up which says "Kernel .heade4s for version 2.6.37.1-1.2 desktop not found" How do I find them and install please.
Actually I need to install configure file of NRPE 2.12 for monitoring the SUSE machine from NAGIOS(Linux machine). But once I am trying to install configure file of the NRPE 2.12 its giving error "cannot find SSL headers". I downloaded libssl-dev files which are in the format of .deb but its not getting install on SUSE.
I'm trying to use module-assistant to add the vboxdrv using instructions also found here in the debian forum. However, m-a can't find the linux-headers because it looks for the package linux-headers-2.6.32-5-trunk-686. I attempted to specify were the headers were by using: m-a prepare --kernel-dir /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-5-686/ but also doesn't work. Instead, I get the error: Bad kernel version specification at /usr/bin/m-a line 566. Anyone knows how to work around this? By the way, the reason I am doing this is because when I installed virtualbox (following the instructions in debian wiki) there's no vboxdrv. When I try to modprobe it, I get: FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found.
My server gets ddos attacks. I dig into access logs and I saw that attacker ips doesn't have valid requests headers, like their browser application info or requested url info.I want to close those connections immediately, and if it's possible block those ips for a time period.Can I do that with Apache and iptables?I searched on the internet but couldn't find useful results. Probably couldn't search for the right words.
I know this sounds weird but the Fedora 10 I installed doesn't have gcc and makefile in it. I burned a CD from fedora.org and could it be the problem with the CD I burned? During installation, it didn't ask me to choose what packages I wanna install.
I don't know much about live CD but this installation procedure is different from my previous experience. It firstly take me to a 'virtual' linux desktop and I started the installation through clicking a Installation icon on it. Is this what so called live cd installation?
On KMail (KDE 4.3.5), I normally had the "Fancy" Message Header style (which I like), but I wanted to inspect all the headers for one particular email, so I clicked View - Headers - All Headers.
That was a mistake. I can't get back to having KMail default to Fancy Message Headers - no matter what I select for an email, every new email shows up as "Standard Headers".
I can't find any options under Settings - Configure KMail that would control the default view. Does anyone know how I can get back to defaulting Fancy Message Headers?
I'm trying to install some nvidia drivers but I need to install the correct headers. uname -r says: 2.6.31-21-serverbut I can't find the headers anywhere to install. 2.6.31-21 and 2.6.31-21-generic are installed but not the server version. It's not showing up in synaptic and using apt-get I get the error message in the title.I have 2.6.31-22-server headers but for some reason when I boot into 2.6.31-22 the OS can't see my 3ware cards and, obviously, the arrays they control. So, I can't use 2.6.31-22 yet.
I would like to make my Fedora 13 box a DHCP server for my network. I can not find dhcpd in YUM. Is there a way to make my Fedora box a dhcp server? This was relay easy with Suse, but my Opensuse box just suffered a hard drive failure.
I have Lucent Technologies Orinoco Silver 11 Mbps PCMCIA wifi card. It worked perfectly in Fedora 10, but after updating to Fedora 11 it stopped finding any wireless networks. The updating were done with automatic updating utility. The card works perfectly in Windows, I tested it today.
My laptop is HP nx6110 if that matters.
Here is the situation:
When I plug-out the card, the Network Manager disables wireless networking as it should. When I plug-in the card, wireless networking is enabled, so the system seems to recognize the card in some way.
If I try to connect to "Hidden wireless network" (because there isn't any wireless networks listed in the Network Manager) system tries to connect for a couple of minutes, and then asks wireless settings again. Orinoco card's lights DOESN'T blink normally when connecting to the network (one light should blink rapidly and one should light continuously, but both are blinking rarely or doesn't blink at all).
In System->Administration->Network in tab Hardware (hope those names are correct, I use Finnish version of Fedora...) is:
It seems that the card is detected right.
Here is what I have done to get the problem solved: In System->Administration->Network I have tried to connect to the wireless network manually (disabling the Network Manager). I can't get the connection. It gives me random error messages, sometimes "Check the cable" or something like that, sometimes just timeouts IP determination.
I have tried to connect different wireless networks, no connection. All tested networks worked with another computer.
No matter if I reboot or service network restart or plug-out plug-in the card... the problem still appears.
Tried to find (and reinstall) drivers:
Code:
No Matches found
Code:
Here is the output of lspci. The output is the same if the wifi card is connected or not.
Yesterday, I think I did something stupid: I removed kernel-headers, gcc, glibc-devel and glibc-headers. My box is a CentOS 5.4 webserver (it has loads of packages installed, but that was done through Virtualmin config, so it's quite coherent all in all). The thing is that now I need to reinstall at least the headers and glibc, but hey! this is what I get :
I've modified a program to show * instead of letters when typing a password. I'm trying to make it so that when pressing backspace a * will be removed.Here's a rough example. The problem is that when trying to do this in the real program,' is not recognized as backspace.
