OpenSUSE Network :: Installing Driver Error - No Rule To Make Target `modules' - Stop
Apr 13, 2011
I am relatively new to linux and am running into a problem. I just got a new laptop and need to configure/install it's wireless driver but am getting an error when running "make". The error is: make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop/build' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop.
I have scoured these forums and know that others have the same issue (when configuring other drivers/programs). I am sorry if this post is redundant. It sounds like the Makefile is pointing to the wrong directory. I am using opensuse 11.4, have make and gcc installed. My kernel is linux-2.6.37.1-1.2 (I just re-installed the desktop kernel to make sure it was up to date). The driver I am trying to install is located here: AUR (en) - rtl8192ce.
Another forum suggests pointing somewhere in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.37.1-1.2 directory instead. Is this correct? Should I be pointing to a folder within this? I am not a programmer but any description about what I am actually putting in this directory and why would be awesome (so I can learn a bit more). Or just helping me solve the problem would be great too.
After reading all the forum entries and tutorials I could find, which all make it sound very easy to do, however I type the command 'make' in the folder where I have the "rtl8192su_linux_2.4_2.6.0003.1019.2009.tar.gz " unzipped and get the following output:
make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.35.6-45.fc14.i686/build' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/lib/modules/2.6.35.6-45.fc14.i686/build'
i'm trying to install driver for some PCI device but i have problems with it - when i run it it gives me an error
Code: Select allmake: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build' make: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop. make: Leaving directory `/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build'
i've tried to find solution in internets but have no success usually they say that problem is that ppl forget to download kernel-headers and kernel-sources or unpack kernel-sources or make symlink usr/src/linux but i've done it all and the result is the same.i think the root of problem is that `/lib/modules/ 2.6.32-5-686/build' folder is empty but there have to be this RULE, so what i have to do to have it there? my system is Debian 6.0.10 Squeeze, Kernel 2.6.32-5-686.
I have googlled and get these commands to install extracted .tar.gz file such as ./configure, make and make install, after extraction it becomes a directory called eclipse. But when i giving these commands also i got error like this
I am following the instructions on Section 8.1.* Device Driver ConceptsHere I was able to proceed till section 8.1.4.After making the hello.c file,the make file and patching the Kconfig as mentioned,I tried to run the $ make ARCH=ARM CROSS_COMPILE=xscale_be- gconfig This gave error as:make: *** No rule to make target `gconfig'. Stop.I am not sure if my kernel is correctly compliled,but I was able to complie and build the kernel for arm before by cloning the kernel and building from the following link without any error. https://omapzoom.org/gf/project/omap...ux+OMAP+Kernel
I recently bought a pci multi io card to give my pc 2 parallel ports. For Linux, Moschip supply the source plus makefile and instructions. I ran make as root and got an error message make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop/build/: No such file or directory. So I created a folder called build in /lib/modules/2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop but that isn't good enough as I still get an error cannot make target modules. So I assume there must be something in the build folder. So what packages do I have to install to get the correct environment to be able to build the driver? Has anyone done this and can supply the driver for 11.2?
I am compiling libmp3lame from svn and I got following error No rule to make target `basic.html', needed by `all-am'. Stop. which package am I missing.....??
I want to gave much details as possible. working directory (~/a1/shell) in the shell directory i have Makefile. also in the shell directory i have subdirectory's (obj, src, include)
My current Makefile
Quote:
#What needs to be built to make all files and dependencies
clean:
# End of Makefile
I wanted it so: all .o files are created in the obj subdirectory, and my application, sshell, is created in the shell directory.
I am getting this error when i run the make run: No rule to make target 'shell.h', needed by 'shutil.o'. stop
I am trying to compile a kernel in the following directory:/usr/src/kernels/2.6.30.9-102.fc11.x86_64
Note I am not trying to build an rpm but just do a simple make. After configuring with make menuconfig I issue the make command and get the following error:
Code: [root@compaq 2.6.30.9-102.fc11.x86_64]# make CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-x86 make[1]: *** No rule to make target `missing-syscalls'. Stop. make: *** [prepare0] Error 2
how to resolve this error? It seems to be fedora-centric.
The LDFLAGS specifies the library path, which is specified as -L$(PROJECTPATH)/myproject/libs/liburl/ When I check this directory on my machine I see that the file: liburi.so.1 is indeed there.
I've had qmail running on a server for three years, almost forgot how difficult that installation was. I got away with it because I downloaded Qmail Rocks and followed all their instructions step by step. However, Qmail Rocks is based on qmail 1.03. I just had to install qmail on a new server, so this time I looked around and found netqmail 1.06 and decided to go with it, following the instructions on Life With Qmail. It was a good decision. A read a lot more documentation and now I understand qmail a lot better.
But I can't get past one point: authentication. Consider this test on Qmail Rocks: Code: telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 somewhere.anywhere.com ESMTP ehlo localhost 250-somewhere.anywhere.com 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-STARTTLS 250-PIPELINING 250 8BITMIME starttls 220 ready for tls quit quit Connection closed by foreign host.
That test works fine on my old server. But qmail behaves differently on my new server: Code: # netqmail-1.06> telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 domain.com ESMTP ehlo localhost 250-domain.com 250-PIPELINING 250 8BITMIME starttls 502 unimplemented (#5.5.1) quit 221 domain.com Connection closed by foreign host.
That same page on Qmail Rocks says that I need to have a certificate, the procedure is described here. The installation procedure given by LWQ does not include that step. Running 'make cert' inside the source directory of netqmail-1.06 does not work: Code: # netqmail-1.06> make cert make: *** No rule to make target `cert'. Stop.
In my vast ignorance, I copied /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem from my old server over to the new one. I also fixed all ownership and permissions. I don't know if I am allowed to do that. But although those are two different boxes, I am in fact installing the same domain in the new box. The new server is going to replace the old one as soon as it's running perfectly. I restarted qmail and... authentication still does not work.
I am trying to install an application. But when I do a make it gives me this error . I tried to resolve it by installing kernel-sorce, kernel-devel packages But still cant seem to get rid of the error.
I want to install EVMS n machines with openSuse 11.2. The EVMS installation procedure (EVMS: Installation: Installing the EVMS Tools), point 3, says to do: "make install". I'm in the correct folder, there is the file Makeinstall.ini, but just try to run the command I've an error (make cannot have install like target).
this is my output:
linux-vxth:/usr/src/evms-2.5.5 # ls .makefile.swo INSTALL.initrd aclocal.m4 engine po .makefile.swp Makefile.in autoconf include tests COPYING PLUGIN.IDS config.h.in intl ui

I tried too rename "Makefile.in" into "makefile" and "make.rules.in" into "make.rules", but then I have other problems
I'm attempting to build cloog-ppl-0.15.10 but even the configure script tells that everything look good, "make" complains saying "No rule to make target `m4/libtool.m4`, ...". I'm running Scientific Linux 5.5 on a x86_64 machine.
I've downloaded a linux driver for my wireless card (Realtek 8191SE), and whenever I try to make it it gives me the following error:make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [all] Error 2I have installed make, pattern devel_basis devel_C_C++, kernel-source, linux-kernel-headers, gcc43, etc.I also tried linking them:# ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop/buildln: creating symbolic link `./build': File existslinux-ynct:/lib/modules # ls2.6.31.14-0.1-debug 2.6.31.14-0.1-desktop 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop2.6.31.14-0.1-default 2.6.31.14-0.1-xen
I have two devices (a usb modem and a camera) permanently hard-wired into my system. When linux boots, it automatically inserts their drivers. However, I would like this to be under my control to insert as and when needed. Can anyone give any pointers as to how I might disable auto-insertion, whilst still allowing manual insertion via insmod or modprobe? I understand the usual method would be to use modules.conf, however in my modules.conf file, there is no entries at all.
The relevant details of my setup are: Samsung R522 laptop Realtek RTL8192E wireless network controller (PCI) Fedora 12, kernel 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686 (automatically updated using software update)
My problem is that my wireless card has never worked - basically there aren't any widely available linux drivers, and there are many threads on getting the RTL8192E to work on many different forums, e.g. here, but none specifically for Fedora, so I think that this thread could potentially guide many more users. FYI, my hardwired network connection works perfectly.
Fantastically however, by emailing Realtek support, they'll send you their Linux driver, which most people have claimed works perfectly (although why they haven't just put it on their website is beyond me). SO, I've got a Linux driver for my wireless card. When Realtek emailed me to send me the driver, they said to just 'cd' into the driver directory, then do
su make clean make make install reboot ./wlan0up or ./wlan1up
OK, so I tried to do this and get the following error: make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [all] Error 2
I don't know enough about linux to understand this error. I really don't want to have to recompile my kernel, and I hope there is some way to install this driver with not too much hassle. How to overcome this error, and install my wireless driver so I can get wireless network access on my Fedora 12 operating system. I've found Fedora 12 really easy to use so far, but this is proving quite hard!
This is the output of 'ls -lh' in the folder which seems to be causing the error, namely /lib/modules/2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686/ total 3.1M lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 2010-03-16 22:53 build -> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K 2010-03-03 05:28 extra drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4.0K 2010-03-16 22:53 kernel -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 498K 2010-03-16 22:53 modules.alias .....

I'm trying to add my Samsung SCX4500W printer to my opensuse 11.2 machine running KDE.From Yast->Printer->Add printerI am able to set the printer up, however there is no driver for my specific network printer. Samsung does provide a linux driver but I have no idea what I'm doing when installing peripherals on linux basically
When trying to install my WiFi card's driver on Ubuntu 9.1, I run the make command and get the following error:make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.31-20-generic/build: No such file or directory
I configured SuSEfirewall2 with no open ports on a openSUSE 11.1 box.
When I list firewall rules (iptables -L -n) the first rules in the INPUT chain are
Code:
2nd and 3rd rules are ok, allowing outbound requests. But how about the first rule? To me it looks like it accepts anything incoming hands down. I can't believe it, do I read this right? In such case the first rule short-circuits all subsequent rules on this chain.
