Ubuntu :: Packages Needed For Compiling Module?
May 24, 2011
A friend is running Ubuntu 10.04 on a laptop that uses the Ralink RT5390 chip for wifi which requires compiling and adding a module. My plan is to...
1. download on my 10.04 laptop whatever .dpkg packages are needed to compile a new module,
2. meet at a location that has a good wifi (just in case),
3. connect the two laptops with a cross-over Ethernet cable,
4. download and install the compiling tools + module source on her laptop, I need to know three things:
1. Which Ubuntu packages must I download to be able to compile a new module? Is "build-essential" enough?
2. Where can I find those packages as .dpkg, so I can install from those offline files instead of fetching them from the Net?
3. To get an Ethernet connection going between the two laptops, do I need to do anything extra on her laptop besides assigning it an IP manually that is in the same range as my laptop?

I'm running my newly-built minimal slackware-13.1 system and considering install X and fluxbox into it. The problem is, as a minimalist, I want just the packages that needed for X and fluxbox and no more.

I'm trying to set it up so that I don't have to recompile the driver for my RAID card manually every time there is a kernel upgrade.I found a thread on it, here and a help page here, and it looks like it builds the module fine, but for some reason it's not being inserted into the new kernel, or something. It's like the new kernel doesn't know it exists, even tho modprobe -l shows the newly built module exists (and is in the correct place)Here's the script that I wrote up to get the drivers set up in DKMS:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
set -e

I am trying to figure out how to compile qcserial.c kernel module from the latest kernel source file located in the 2.6.37-rc8 kernel tree. I have installed the sources for my current kernel 2.6.35-24-generic on maverick and it seems that my includes are not in the right place to make the qcserial.c file happy.
I overcame this issue by passing the -I option to gcc that points to the directories that it is looking for. I am currently getting errors while compiling and I was wondering if it is impossible to compile qcserial.c on my current kernel? I am looking to get the diagnostic port and GPS port enabled for my built-in 3G card.
I havent built modules for quite some time and that was on opensuse with the fglrx module.

I'm having problems to compile XIllybus kernel module. As this guide explains, [URL] ..... (on the top of page 8 of 25) I unpackaged the tar.gz file and compiled the kernel module by typing the make command in the proper path. When I compile the module with make command, I get the following error:
make -C /lib/modules/3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64/build SUBDIRS=/home/xillybus/module modules
make: *** /lib/modules/3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [default] Error 2
/lib/modules/3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64/build path does not exist. What does it mean? Should I have to install some kernel packet? www does not work for me.

I update my last kernl to 2.6.38-rc7 but when I launch VirtualBox, on stdout.The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module available for the current kernel (2.6.38-rc7) or it failed to load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup.

I`m trying to compile sources of kernel module which has been written for kernel 2.6.9. There were many changes in kernel headers since then in current kernel sources. I`ve found that old /asm/system.h was moved under architecture dedicated directory /arch/*/include/asm/system.h. Anyway during sources compilation I`m having errors related to kernel sources. It looks like there is something wrong with this /asm/system.h
Code:
../asm/system.h: In function �__cmpxchg�:
../asm/system.h:248: error: expected string literal before �LOCK_PREFIX�
../asm/system.h:254: error: expected string literal before �LOCK_PREFIX�

Actually, I have posted this problem here but I don�t know if is best to ask it here. The problem is that I have upgraded my OS to Slackware 13.1 64 bits, and now, I can�t compile the module RT73 from serialmonkey
There are a lot of similar tutorials explaining the steps for a succesfully installation. I had followed any of them before, and I had no problem never.
But now, I get this error:
Code:
make[1]:Entering directory "/usr/src/linux-2.6.33.4"
Building modules, stage 2
MODPOST 0 modules
make [1]: Leaving directory "/usr/src/linux-2.6.33.4"
rt73.ko failed to build!
make:*** [module] Error 1
On the other hand, in the serialmonkey page they said that the driver was included into the kernel yet, but I don�t know how can I now if I have the driver installed. The true is that my usb doesn�t work.
It�s is a USB D-Link System AirPlus G DWL-G122 Wireless Adapter (rec.C1) [Ralink RT73]

I'm trying to compile a Linux kernel module called hello-2.c using the command "make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=${PWD} modules" (without the quotes) (which I found online), and the following is the (seemingly successful) output.:
Code: Select allmake: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64'
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST 0 modules
make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64'
However, I don't see a hello-2.ko (in the same folder or anywhere else for that matter). I'm Using Debian GNU/Linux 7.6.
Everything I am doing is within a folder/directory called "thefolder" (without the quotes) in the "/tmp" directory (without the quotes).
Why I can't see a hello-2.ko, and what to do to get it?

I've never compiled/built/installed any Apache module before, and I just can't seem to get it working on ArchLinux. I got the source code from here: [URL] Then I tried doing this...
Code:
apxs -c -L/usr/lib/mysql -I/usr/include/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz mod_auth_mysql.c
And I get this...
Quote:
/usr/share/apr-1/build/libtool --silent --mode=compile gcc -prefer-pic -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -DLINU X=2 -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -pthread -I/usr/include/httpd -I/usr/include/apr-1 -I/usr/include/apr-1 -I/usr/incl ude -I/usr/include/mysql -c -o mod_auth_mysql.lo mod_auth_mysql.c && touch mod_auth_mysql.slo mod_auth_mysql.c:591:2: error: expected expression before
[code]...
I would eventually like to modify the mod_auth_mysql.c source code so I can append a salt/padding to the end of the hashes (that mod_auth_mysql reads from the database), but I will be happy if I can just install the damn thing.

Using the rpmbuild to compile the kernel, every time the patches will be applied to the source code. So even if no changes are made to the source code and no patches are added to kernel.spec, the whole kernel will still be recompiled, wasting a lot of time

I am running openSUSE 11.1 with modified Kernel. While trying to run make on the downloaded driver for the RTL2831 I am getting an error message that I do not full understand. That is:
Code:
linux-2c5j:~/rtl2831-r2 # make
make -C /root/rtl2831-r2/v4l
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/rtl2831-r2/v4l'
No version yet, using 3.0.4-41-desktop
[code]...
I am not sure what is required when the error is "first use this function". How can I use the function T_DIGITAL_TV if I first have to install my driver in order to use the stick?

I'm compiling the BlueZ packages on Slackware64-13.0 and bluez.Slackbuild failed to run. I added
Code:
mkdir -p $PKG/lib/udev
immediately before
Code:
cp -a scripts/bluetooth_serial $PKG/lib/udev/bluetooth_serial || exit 1
and now the script runs.I don't know why the /lib/udev directory isn't created earlier in the build process for me, but now it builds cleanly.

I am in need of some more clear information about compiling and installing various applications in Slackware. I mean, i am not that new in Linux world, but i am not used to having to check for dependencies on my own and making Slackware packages myself. Things i would like to know more about and would be these:
a) is there some magical way you use to find out what dependencies a package has? I would appreciate as much information in this field as much as i can get. As now if i download source of some application i have completely no idea about what it needs from my system to function properly or where to look for this information. I think there should be more "correct way" than goggling for it...
b) I know about nice site SlackBuilds.org that it is, but lets say i want to install application A, and there is written, that application A requires application B, which requires application C, and this one needs application D. So now i have to spend good half of a day getting and compiling dependencies for one application, i mean common there has to be a quicker way to do this... at least some tool that would let me build some kind of ques that would be processed automatically or some kind of trick... So if you know some focuses under your sleeve, then please oh please do share
c) I would also like to know more about optimizing Slackware for boot time and general performance (but it's not that important, there are a lot of walls of text about this in Google world).

Whenever I boot up Fedora 15 on Virtual Box, I get the message " gnome 3 could not load " and I installed all the packages needed to install Guest Additions, but even when I mounted the file, the ONLY file I could find online that was VMBoxGuestAdditions.iso or something like that, I mounted it, I tried installing, but nope, it gives me an error message that it can't. I have the latest version of VirtualBox and I've been on several forums and looked at many places but I can't fix it. I also have a problem where when I boot it up it says " the system is optimized to support 32 bit but it is currently 64 bit go here and click this to fix it " or something like that. and I can't figure out how to fix it in Virtual Box.

When I try to load the Realtek 8187 modules to kernel using the ./wlan1up command, I get the following error:
[root@localhost rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007]# ./wlan1up
insmod: error inserting 'ieee80211_crypt-rtl.ko': -1 File exists
[code]...
Can someone tell me how to correct the "Invalid module format"? I hope that correcting the "Invalid module format" error, I will not have the "Unknown symbol in module" error.
Note: I am using wlan1 for this module as I previously am online with the wlan0 network.The same error occurs if I use ./wlan0up.

I need to install module u32 into the netfilter module for kernel 2.6.27.
I did not see the source code in the kernel version I have. where can I find the code for U32 module.
I have checked "netfilter.org" and looks like POM is discontinued. Is the u32 module committed to kernel version 2.6.27 or need to patch it. If yes, where can I find the patch?

i installed firefox 4 and removed the old 3.X version. did a general update that my computer showed me was available then i noticed the first problem. firefox 4 would not launch when i clicked it, it would only launch when i clicked the gnome 3 applications button and then clicked and dragged the firefox logo to the desktop, then it opened. the second problem i am now having which at the moment is more bothersome is that after i closed the lid to my laptop and opened it up again after a while and logged back in and noticed that the ENTIRE gnome 3 environment was gone. no panel no menu nothing just the desktop and a few desktop icons. i tried the command "yum install gnome-shell" but it just sed that gnome 2.31.5-7 .fc14.i686 was already installed so it wasnt gonna do anything, then i tried the "gnome-shell --replace" command and it just said
failed to load "canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module no such file or directory.
