I reinstalled linux on my computer today and I am having a difficult time getting my sound-driver to work. I usually download my the driver for my Realtek ALC202 sound card at realtek's webpage -here:
http://www.realtek.com/tw/downloads/...&Software=true
this time, things are different...
I have unzipped the file and have found the same directions as usual:
Installation:
This Source Code is from www.alsa-project.org.
For driver installation, please follow below steps.
Step 1. unzip source code
tar xfvj alcsound.tar.bz2
Step 2. Turn on sound support (soundcore module, default turn on)
Step 3. Complied source code
a. ./configure
b. make
c. make install
d. ./snddevices
etc.etc..
the problem is that the contents of this driver seem to have changed. There is no /configure. Here are the contents of the unzipped driver...
azx-112504.tar.bz2 core.h modules.conf
Readme.txt azx-util.tar.bz2 linux_r30.zip<the driver
turbolinux.txt
I have unzipped the azx files, and when I go inside of them the README files there do not provide directions on how to use them.
Inside of azx-112504.tar.bz2 -

when I run MAKE or MAKE INSTALL a failure occurs (I'm sorry this has become so long) here is what happens -

does anyone know how to solve this... maybe someone else with a 2.6.10 kernel and a realtek audio card?
