Hello all, I'm new to 64studio, but not new to Debian. I've run into a snag with 64s that I hope can be resolved.
I need to compile Matrox's Parhelia video drivers for my system. I've downloaded the latest src from them and run their matrox...<version>.run file, but it initially errors with: make -C /lib/modules/2.6.29-1-multimedia-686/build M=/opt/matrox/matroxdriver-x86_32-cvs-20090511/kernel/src modules make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.29-1-multimedia-686/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [default] Error 2 So suspecting a build environment issue, I began installing all the standard kernel building packages (source, headers, tools, etc) from 64s repositories, but bombed on build-essential because of Debian Bug#551023. So I'm not entirely confident I have a valid build env, but i don't know how to resolve bug 551023. So I investigated my Lenny machine (which has a valid build env) and looked into /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/build and see that it is a symbolic link to /usr/src/linux-headers-<kernel-version>/. I create the link on the 64s machine and try to build the Parhelia driver, but it now errors with: > make -C /lib/modules/2.6.29-1-multimedia-686/build > M=/opt/matrox/matroxdriver-x86_32-cvs-20090511/kernel/src modules > make[1]: Entering directory > `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.29-1-multimedia-686' > /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.29-1-common-multimedia/arch/x86/Makefile:41: > /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.29-1-common-multimedia/arch/x86/Makefile_32.cpu: > No such file or directory > make[3]: *** No rule to make target > `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.29-1-common-multimedia/arch/x86/Makefile_32.cpu'. > > Stop. > make[2]: *** [sub-make] Error 2 > make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory > `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.29-1-multimedia-686' > make: *** [default] Error 2 The .../x86/Makefile_32.cpu is actually under /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.29/arch/x86/Makefile_32.cpu. Looking around un the lenny box, I see all kinds of symbolic links for various source files that I don't see in the 64s machine, so I'm thinking my 64s machine is seroiusly lacking in build env configuration, but i don't know how to fix it. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks, Rick Bolen _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
