hey guys. i just reformatted and installed RH8 last night. Before i did that, i had a perfectly working DWL-650+ card. Before i formatted, i saved all the important files i needed to make that card work, inluding the binary, driver, and text documents with the insturctions. The problem now is, i can't get past 'make'. It just gives me a crap load of errors. It says something to the effect that 'in blahblah.c- 'blah' is not defined' or a whole buch of stuff like that(typical errors that i usualy when I'M programing in c).
I never had this problem before. I'm wondering, is this because i installed more options when i reinstalled RH8 that are causing this problem!? How do i get around this? thnx
jay
ps:i realy realy REALY need ur help. living without the net on my laptop is like losing my right and left arms and legs...:'(
i'm not sure but i think you can only use "make" on source, not on a binary... if "make install" just copies the binary into the right place you could try that...except you probably dont have the file that works for make install
er, i think it is the source. i'm just following the instructions that come with the files. I was able to 'make' the 5 versions that come before this file, but not acx100pre6. it's messed up. if i could get on my laptop and email u the msg, that would be great, but then again i wouldn't care cause then i'd be able to get on the net.
yeah. sorry. i couldn't get the msgs before cause i wasn't able to connect to the internet through linux. I'm using an older driver now. doing make on those worked fine, but on this 6th version i get some compilation errors, like this:
