I am trying to install some drivers for a Wireless PCI card. Though this isnt the problem (yet
)
The files are sent as .tar.gz files, and need untarring, yet when i do so i get the response :
unable to change permissions to .......
I am untarring as root, and the files untar no problem, but i cannot then run make config etc, prevent installation of the drivers. This occurs when i am root.
Can any one help? Either explaining how to enable the untarring process to allow root access to the files, or a quick fix i.e. changing the untarred files permissions to allow root acces to files.
Thank you for any help
