How to load linux-kernel-devel
Hi all,
Complete n00b here. I am running openSUSE 11.3 and trying to load drivers for a network card. When I try to make install, I am getting this error: Code:
Makefile:69: *** Linux kernel source not found in any of these locations: Thanks |
I don't use SuSE, but i suspect that yast install kernel-devel or something similar should work. I also think that SuSE has a "Package Manager" or similarly named tool available from the GUI menu(s) which you can use to search for and install software. (See the "sticky" posts at the top of the main SUSE/Novell sub-forum page for repository location information. You may need to set up the repository search locations to get YAST to work properly.)
You might also want to look for the driver you're attempting to compile. There may be a binary version you can install and thereby avoid needing to do the compilation. (Unless, of course, you want to make changes in the driver.) |
Install the "kernel-source" and "kernel-syms" packages.
sudo zypper install kernel-source kernel-syms "zypper info -t pattern devel_kernel" shows these packages: Code:
S | Name | Type | Dependency |
Thanks guys, that got me closer. Now I am getting this response:
Code:
Makefile:116: *** Linux kernel source not configured - missing autoconf.h. |
I guess you need the kernel devel package. For my kernel, it is the kernel-desktop-devel package.
Code:
zypper se kernel | grep devel |
