a friend of mine gave me a .tar.gz file which contains a bunch of C sourcefiles and a makefile. I don't get how to use the make command to create an executable out of those files. What arguments do I have to give the make command?
I am doing some embeded linux work in ARM 9263.So I need to make a image for that board.But when I using one command "make uImage" I am getting the following error.
make: arm-linux-gcc: Command not found CHK include/linux/version.h make[1]: `include/asm-arm/mach-types.h' is up to date. CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep code....
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and while trying to install the Wacom driver and kernel I get to the step after ./config and get this message when I use make.
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
I've tried looking up on it and they all say that build-essentials should be installed first. So I looked into it and I found out that it's already installed along with the make command itself.
Anyway to get Ubuntu to recognize it as installed?
I have just started using backtrack. I an a fresher into this field. In one of the assignment, I am giving command make stack.c in which it gives me the error makefile:l: *** missing separator. Stop.
I'm trying to make and make install a driver for my wireless, every time, though, I use the make command, it'll start at 0 and cound almost up to 200,000 and then the computer freezes. I've tried different drivers, same result. I've tried ndiswrapper but that didn't work either.
I have installed cygwin to my windows xp machine. I typed the commmand in cygwin shell it shows "command not found". How can i install make command in cygwin
Based on previous forum discussions, I tried to install cygwin with 'make' installed from develop during installation. I can even see 'make.exe' in bin folder, but still while running the make command, it still shows error.
I was confused in one other part. Should I put the bin folder in some specific location or just wherever it is placed during cygwin installation? I was running VIC model, do I need to place the bin folder inside VIC source code folder.
I have a problem to make a shell, using mail command DestMail= cat /opt/scripts/maillist.txt mail -s"SUBJECT" $DestMail -- -r xxxxx@gmail.com < /opt/scripts/test.txt where: maillist.txt contain email adresse separated by comma test.txt mail text this script can eval DestMail variable!!
I am completely new to linux and am trying to run a Fortran program for class. I typed in "make C=R" and it ran through a long list of things and then came up with that error.
Consider that I am building my application in Linux shell using make command but somehow the build fails. Is there any way I can find out that the build has failed (of course looking at shell for error messages will do the job for me but I don't want that). Is there any flag make or shell will set/reset if such failure occurs ?
i was wondering if it is possible too use the DD command to make an image file of my blackberry 8330?i need it of the onboard memory and not the external memory card.
I'm using a program called easystroke to invoke commands from mouse gestures - typically to launch an application. 'gnome-terminal', for example. If I already have a gnome-terminal window open, and I invoke the gnome-terminal gesture, I'd like to be setting focus to the already running instance, rather than spawn a new instance, which is of course what happens now. (I am actually more interested in this for my gmail chrome app shortcut, and other larger apps.)
I'm very new to ubuntu and linux in general, but I was hoping there might be a nifty command I could wrap around my launch command that would produce this behavior. (I'm imagining some kind of singleton app list keeper program that consumes my command line, checks if it's already in the list, transfers focus to the running process if it is (and if that process is still running), or else spawns a new process and then adds it to its list using the the command line as a key.)
I'm new to LinuxQuestions and this is my first post. I'm trying to build rrdtool to install Cacti and encountered the following problem: 'make' step returns an error messages:
Code: ./.libs/librrd.so: undefined reference to `xmlTextReaderGetParserLineNumber' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status What I have doneDownload and build the latest version of pkg-config, glib, pixman, cairo, pango, atk, gtk+ from official sites. Download rrdtool source Set PKG_CONFIG_PATH correctly
[Code]...
There is actually another problem with the computer which is "The Nautilus application has quit unexpectedly" everytime I open File Browser application or right-click>Properties a file/directory. This happen only after installing cairo and pango and I don't know how to revert to old version. Since there are a lot of log files so I'm very confused. Can someone give me a direction on how to resolve this?
I use a program which makes a large image which I have to scroll to view. The program has no way to save the image, and I have no access to the source to modify it. The only way I have to get the image from the program is by screenshot. My goal is to save the full size image without having to piece together individual screenshots. I'm using this script to try taking a screenshot:
This uses wmctrl to get the window id ($window) for a window named "Program". It then tries to resize the window to the desired dimensions. It uses imagemagick (import) to save a screenshot.png on the user's Desktop. All of this works except the resize step. I can resize the window using wmctrl -r -e, but sizes greater than the screen size don't work. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and the Gnome Desktop. I run two monitors, but I've tried this with one of them disabled. Is there a way to resize the window larger than my screen to get a huge screenshot?
Part II: I tried using xrandr to set up screen panning, so as to have a bigger desktop than my monitor. xrandr --output LVDS --panning 2600x2500 This command makes the laptop screen pan over a 2600x2500 size desktop, even though it can only show 1440x900 at one time. To turn off the panning, I can use a similar command to set total size and with zeroes for the panning section. This gives me back my original laptop display behavior. xrandr --fb 1440x900 --output LVDS --panning 0x0 This is all done with xrandr, and does not require any Xorg.conf changes (my Ubuntu system doesn't even have an Xorg.conf).
My video card seems to only allow about 6.5 million pixels, even though the maximum dimensions are 8192x8192. That maximum seems to be the maximum for either dimension, but there is a limit to how many pixels can be drawn, which is the width multiplied by the height. Once I did the screen resize, I tried my script again and got a screenshot. The screenshot however is totally scrambled. I'm not sure if it's unable to take a screenshot of an off-screen window or if it is unable to handle the large dimensions of the window. With the panning display, the window should think it is visible, and the window manager should think it is on-screen. So there is a pixel buffer somewhere with those pixels in it, so there should be a way to get a screenshot.
How to copy a Read-Only file in Linux and make the copy writable with a single cp command in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)? The --no-preserve and --preserve seemed to be good candidates, except that they should "and" the mode flags, while what I am looking for is something that will "or" them (add +w mode).
More details: I have to import a repository from GIT to Perforce. I want that all Perforce depot files are Read-Only (that is how Perforce was designed), while all other files that were derived/copied from depot files are writable. Currently if a Makefile tries to copy a Read-Only file then the derived file will also be Read-only. This leads to build-errors when cp tries to overwrite Read-Only file second time. Of course the --force is a workaround here but then the derived file is also Read-Only. Also I do not want to mess with "chmod" after each "cp" command - I will do that only as the last resort.
Well, I am facing problem when doing lab questions.
I must use DLXLinux bundled in Bochs (bochs.sourceforge.net).
I am required to use the /usr/local directory.
In /usr directory, there is no directory named 'local' but there is one thing called 'local@'. So, when I try to use mkdir command to create 'local' directory in /usr , there are error "cannot make directory.....".
I have downloaded a few tar.gz programs and trying to follow the instructions always come to the command "make". The result is a printout stating there is no make command. The last program had a "makeinstall" but that wasn't recognised either. I am no a new comer. I have been using Ubuntu for nearly four years and I have only succeeded in installing two programs and that was at least two and a half years ago. Since then I've had no luck whatsoever. Is there anyone out there that can tell me, in simple English, leaving out no steps, how in the h*** I can download and install a tar.gz program?
In this link, the last poster describes a way to disable tap click which I find VERY useful, but the thing is, after I reboot it goes away. Is there anyway to make this command permanent?
I cant get my wusb54gc to work I have follow all the instructions from [URL] first tried it on mint and it worked perfect--I installed the latest xubuntu and ran into a problem @: Step 9
Code:
cd /home/user/Downloads/2009_1110_RT3070_Linux_STA_v2.1.2.0
Code:
make && make install
terminal puts out:

then after that step 10 in Xubuntu there is no such directory as /lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/updates there is a 2.6.32-21...
