Modem Driver Error solution ?


Hello
i am very new user of Linux redhat 9 kernal 2.4.20-8
i have hardware modem MD5628D-L-B
According to readme.txt file provided with drivers

steps to install
1. login as ROOT
2. extract the archive into a directory with "tar -zxvf <archivename>.tgz"
3. cd into the directory it created.
4. Type: make clean
5. Type: make ham
6. Type: make install



when i use the command MAKE HAM (inlowe case) on Path ==> /usr/local/src/intel-v92han-453 then i got following Errors

[root@localhost Intel-v92ham-453]# make ham
Module precompile check
Current running kernel is: 2.4.20-8
/lib/modules... autoconf.h does not exist
please install kernel source
make: *** [check] Error 1

Hello,

it seems that you need to install kernel sources. So take your red hat CD where you have all your rpms and find one called kernel-sources or something like that. then install it and retry to recompile
