Mandrake 9.2 and P4P800 Lan driver hassles
 
Raw newbie to Mandrake Linux.

I'm having quite some hassle just getting the P4P800 Onboard 3c2000 LAN drivers to install on Mandrake 9.2 download edition. I searched all the posts that were related to my problem on these forums, but I'm still totally stumped

First do I actually have the correct source set? Currently I have...
"kernel-source-2.4.22-10mdk.i586.rpm"

when I go 'uname -a' at the condole prompt, I get the following
Linux localhost 2.4.22-10mdk #1 SMP Thu Sep 18 11:46:49 CEST 2003 i686
unknown unknown GNU/Linux

Current Hardware specs

P4P800 SE Motherboard
P4 3.0GHz FSB 800 MHz with Hyperthreading Enabled.
1GB PC3200 RAM
MSI nVidia FX 5200 128MB Video
Seagate 120GB SATA Harddrive.

After following the readme.txt that came with the drivers which I downloaded from ASUS's site

I go 'make load' and it gives me two error messages at the beginning and apparently continues to complile other components...

-------
usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/version.h:1:28: linux/rhconfig.h: No such
file
or directory
usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/autoconf.h:1:28: linux/rhconfig.h: No such
file
or directory

[Continues the process of compiling the other components...]
-------

and at the end after it has all done that, it gives me another error message...

-------
insmod 3c2000.o
3c2000.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
make: *** [load] Error 1
-------

As far as I know rhconfig.h is there in the same directory.

So where do I need to go from here?

Sorry I am unable give more details, this forum won't let me have any URLs in my posts, until I get 5 or more posts here, preventing me linking to the logs (which are fairly large) on my site. It even rejects if I attempt to post the entire logs and the 'readme' with this message for some reason

Many thanks for any Assistance

Yipii
 
I tried this (found here):

Go to /usr/src/linux and do

make mrproper
make oldconfig
make dep

...and the driver now builds nicely without any hassle :)!

Hope it works for u too!!
