Ubuntu :: Installing Driver From 2002 - Compiling A File "usbserial.c" Into "usbserial.o" In Order To Do Makefile Install
Jun 16, 2011
I am porting a Python program to Linux (which I'm a first time user of). The program uses ADAM modules for which I need the driver installed. My problem is compiling a file "usbserial.c" into "usbserial.o" in order to do makefile install. I've replaced the config.h with autoconf.h. I entered "sudo apt-get upgrade", though I don't know why. Now my src folder looks like this:
I have a linksys AE1000 wireless adapter, I have the proper driver, and I was able to install it on ubuntu to by typing cd (directory) make make install On Fedora 13 when i type su Cd (directory) make I get this after i hit enter after i type make
[root@Renegade wireless]# make make -C tools make[1]: Entering directory `/home/Renegade/wireless/tools' gcc -g bin2h.c -o bin2h
I Currently have the problem of not being able to install xmms on suse 11.3, apparently since there's no way to install it from the packman repos because xmms claims it's missing glib 1.22 -oh yeah that one. But since it worked like a charm on 11.2 i'm just wondering if the glib, gtk, and gdk rpms will be present in the future or have i just missed something. I've tried to compile gtk 1.2 and above on 11.3 but since it is a 64bit system it do not comply with my request.Output from glib-1.2.2 and 1.2.10
Code: checking host system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized and what's missing for xmms
[Code]...
If anyone could give me a tip on how to compile the old 32bit gtk libs on a brand new 64bit system would be much appreciated. Or if there is an even simpler way please tell i.e if there is any repos hosting what i need. Greets
10.10) now, and only use windows as my DVR (what im currently trying to change). To that end, i have a Hauppauge 2250 video capture card, and Steven at KernalLabs has an alpha release that has been said to work very well with mythTV.
Anyways, i followed one of the posts and successfully compiled the driver using "sudo make menuconfig." I attempted to install with the "make install" command, and the first half of the driver seemed to install and the second half (firmware related) received errors.

I'm trying to get my new Wireless USB dongle to work with Xubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. I've extracted the .rar file that was on the drivers CD that came with the dongle. According to the ReadMe....
The Model Name is: RT2870 Wireless Lan Linux Driver Driver Name: rt2870.o/rt2870.ko Hardware: Ralink 802.1n Wireless LAN Card Description: This is a linux device driver for Ralink RT2870 USB ABGN WLAN Card. My issues:
1. I do not see the driver file anywhere in the folder contents... I suppose that I have to "build" it. 2. In the makefile the chipset is default set to "CHIPSET = 3070" & the folder that holds all the extracted files is named 2008_1128_RT3070_Linux_STA_v2.0.1.0 so I'm confused as to whether this dongle has a 2870 or 3070 chipset inside. Does it matter? 3. Sorry, I'm a bit of a n00bster when it comes to all this, but I'm having some problems with the build instructions. It reads:
I just downloaded slackware 13.1(x86) and i'm trying to compile ndiswrapper-1.56 using the slackbuild from slackbuils.org and i'm getting this error:

not entirely sure if this is a hardware or a kernel/distro issue but here goes: when trying to install the driver for an Intel e100 (82557) NIC (on an IBM Thinkpad A20m) I get the following from both <make> and <make install>....

I'm having problems with compiling recursive Makefiles in my directory structure: My folder layout is: top/|- one/|- one.c (With main function)|- zero.c|- two/|- two.cin my top folder the make file looks like:
Code: MAKE_DIRECTORIES = one two .PHONY: all all: $(MAKE_DIRECTORIES)
.PHONY: $(MAKE_DIRECTORIES) $(MAKE_DIRECTORIES): @echo $@ $(MAKE) --directory=$@ in my one and two folder I have the following Makefile:
Code: .PHONE: all all: @echo $@ $(CC) $(CFLAGS) *.c But when I compile it from top folder: make
I get following output: Code: one two Which states that directory statement by echo in main Makefile is ok but the files are not compiled in one and two.
I am running Ubuntu 11.04 with a Dlink DGE-530T NIC. My browsing in Ubuntu on ALL browsers is horribly slow. It works perfectly fine on windows and other PCs on the LAN. So I know for sure my router and my internet line is fine.I figured it could be a problem with my NIC drivers and decided to install the drivers from the CD. (All this while it was running on the default drivers that ship with Ubuntu). I'm trying to install the sk98lin drivers and my understanding of the kernel so far is still very weak. When I try to run the install.sh script it gives me an error saying :
Code: Create tmp dir (/tmp/Sk98IknhDHEiLKnkWUSoYMTLi) [ OK ] Check user id (0) [ OK ] Check kernel version (2.6.38-8-generic) [ OK ] Check kernel symbol file (/proc/kallsyms) [ OK ] Check kernel type (SMP) [ OK ] Check number of CPUs (2)
[Code]...
But the installation script is still not able to find it. I tried searching a few threads on google but wasn't able to make too much sense of whats going on because of my lack of understanding of the linux kernel.
So Ive decided to give Ubuntu a shot after many years of being abused by a Window.. Although it looks good so far Ive yet not managed to install drivers for my HD5850.Whats really stopping my is that I'm reading the instructions and I came across a little "must have" list, here is how it goes..
Code: The following packages must be installed in order for the ATI CatalystTM Linux driver to install and work properly:
In order to configure a dual display in a fresh 11.4 installation, I am attempting to install the nVidia driver according to the instructions in SDB:NVIDIA the hard way - openSUSE. I have not previously compiled or configured a kernel so I largely followed the instructions from OpenSUSE 11.2 - How to compile a Kernel for Newbies.The currently installed kernel is 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop. The graphics card is an ASUS EN9600GSO (512MB).
In Yast, I installed gcc, make, kernel-devel (v. 2.6.37.1-1.2) and kernel-desktop-devel (v. 2.6.37.1-1.2). Per the "hard way" instructions, I did not install kernel-source.
When trying to install the nvidia graphics driver I get the following error-message:
ERROR: The kernel header file '/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h' does not exist. The most likely reason for this is that the kernel source files in '/usr/src/linux' have not been configured. How do I configure the kernel source files?
I have Dell Wireless N-card 1520 on my Dell Studio 15 laptop. I have installed Ubuntu10.04 in it. My network card was not able to detect wireless connections. I have even installed 'Windows Wireless Driver' using ndiswrapper. I have latest driver for card. But when i click install .inf file , nothing happens or gets installed.

I'm using Slackware 13. I have HP LaserJet P1005 printer. I want to use it but there is not any driver file provided for Linux. I'm confused from where to start.
I installed on my laptop NVIDIA driver from the opensuse repository. After restart i am not geting the GUI.The screen blinks while booting and finally ends in command line login. Error shows that gdm lasted for only few seconds. Max number of try exceeded.

Is it possible to install a video driver at the time of the installation of the operating system? I have made multiple installation attempts using the various 11.4 x64 live & non-live versions. As soon as I get past the splash screen with the boot options, the display becomes corrupt & continuing is impossible. I have attempted using the various video options under the F6 menu (text mode, vesa, safe mode) without success.
I am reasonably certain it is a failure of the video driver. I have observed the identical behaviour while installing MS Windows with the incorrect video driver. The video chipset manufacturer does provide a linux driver on their website. It is a .run file. I have the .run file on a USB stick along with the OS files. This is a link to the hardware platform I am attempting to install to. Is it possible that my video chipset has insufficient video memory?
I am trying to use a software package written in ANSI C. It has a makefile which has to be executed first.
As soon as I execute it I get messages like: line i: command not found.
Commands for which I am getting errors :
CC = /usr/bin/gcc GCCFLAGS = -c -Wall ROOTDIR = .
My gcc compiler is located in the above directory only. In ROOTDIR also I tried giving the path in which all the required files & folders are present but still I get the command not found error in all the lines.
I know Ive been a lil redundant, there are a lot that has been said about this cam, some made them work, others not. My point is, I haven't. Once it worked, about 2 years ago, but suddenly after the Jaunty updates it has stopped.
I'm trying to install the rt2870 driver on my server running Ubuntu Server 8.04. I've installed build-essential, checkinstall, cvs, subversion, git-core, mercurial... After uncompressing the tarball, doing a "sudo make" gives me this output:
I have just installed openSUSE 11.1 64 bit on my system. Subsequently registered to get an auto-update repo and auto-updated until no more updates were offered. Then I first tried YaST to install NVidia drivers from the NVidia repo (added their repo), but sax2 wouldn't recognize them. So I downloaded their 190. (beta) drivers, installed the kernel source code and gcc 4.3. Then I switched to a console (Ctrl+Alt+F1), closed the x server, ran the driver install as described (gcc 4.3 is installed). Installer said that all is fine (I checked the log to be sure). So I ran sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia, but the driver still isn't recognized.
I find that I can't compile alsa-driver 1.0.24 OR 1.0.23 under Fedora 14.
