Hi,
This is probably a configuration problem at my end, as Ive had similar irks
with other packages - none fixable. When trying to install it looks for
Linux src/header files, no luck. I created a symbolic link once I discovered
they existed.. and now the configure bit works fine...
loading cache ./config.cache
....
creating include/version.h
include/version.h is unchanged
[root@localhost alsa-driver-0.5.12a]#
Hurray. Except then, when I try the make install
[root@localhost alsa-driver-0.5.12a]# make install

No so great. As mentioned, Ive had similar problems with the modversions
file loading other packages. I can't find any other modversions file
anywhere on the computer, so it must be the right one? But the file contents
are whats shown above, presumably not right for ALSA. What is Error 1 anyway?
Is there a problem with the RedHat install?
Thanks for all your help, sorry to be the 1-in-a-million-unique-error.
Fitz
Anythin I can do to fix this?
