Intel 536 problem on Slackware 12.0.
I downloaded intel536 driver intel-536EP-2.56.76.0_2008_11_15.tar.bz2, unpacked, cd into directory and wrote next command:
make clean
then i wrote:
make 536
but there is an error. Here it is:
Module precompile check
Current running kernel is: 2.6.21.5-smp
/lib/modules... autoconf.h exists
autoconf.h matches running kernel
version.h matches running kernel
uname -r|grep "2.6" && \
cd coredrv && make 536core_26 && \
cp Intel536.ko .. && cd .. && \
strip --strip-debug Intel536.ko && \
exit; \
ls Intel536.ko >/dev/null 2>&1 || uname -r | grep "2.6" && echo "Failed to build driver" && exit; \
if [ ]; then \
cd coredrv; make TARGET=TARGET_SELAH KERNEL_SOURCE_PATH= "PSTN_DEF=-DTARGET_SELAH -DTARGET_LINUX -DLINUX" 536core; \
else \

fi ; \
cp Intel536.o .. ; \
if [ -a /boot/vmlinuz.version.h ]; then \

fi

I installed again kernel source and kernel headers packages but there is an error again.

You try to compile a 2008_11_15 version on a relatively old system.
Try to download an older version.
12.0 was released the Sun Jul 1 22:30:42 CDT 2007

Just one question before installing driver: Does I have to do any patch to kernel?

I found somewhere on my hard old version of driver intel-536EP-2.56.76.0_23_02_2007.tgz. First and second steps now works without errors (commands make clean and make 536). But where I type:
make install
it gives me next output:
rm -f /etc/hamregistry.bin
bash Intel536_inst
running kernel 2.6.21.5-smp
installing hamregistry, used for persistant storage
installing Intel536 driver
unknown distribution - no boot scripts have been installed
make: *** [install] Error 1
