Unable to install driver for f5d7050 belkin on fedora 5
 

When trying to run make and make install I am getting the following errors.
root@localhost ndiswrapper-1.19]# make
make -C driver
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/black/ndiswrapper-1.19/driver'

When I go to /lib/modules... and look at build the link is broken and the following error is display when looking at the properties.

The link can't be used, because its target "usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i686" doesn't exist.

I am very new to Fedora so your help would be greatly apreciated.

You're going to have to install the kernel source... and the headers.

When you compile somehting like that, you complile it for a specific kernel... You must have the source installed to do this.

thanks
 

Thanks you. Is the kernal source and header on the cd's I created? Not sure how to get that installed. using fedora core 5.

It should be on there somewhere. if not, you can google for the .rpm for it.

Also found this on fedora's page
might be able to follow that.

EDIT:

Here's the page that came from.. http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc5/ Lots of great info if you just want to build the headers or do the full source. You should check it out. Good reading.
