ok, I seem to be missing something... Trying to install rt2500 drivers for a wireless nic on an Averatec 5500 laptop running Debian Sarge
drivers from http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page following these directions http://www.methods.co.nz/doc/ralink-2400.html 1) Plug in the card and check lspci to see that it is recognised (Listed as Network controller: Ralink 2) Check uname -a to see which kernel version you are running 3) Install the kernel-headers package that exactly matches your kernel (about 3MB) 4) Download and extract (tar -xzf) the ralink driver 5) cd to the Modules subdirectory 6) (For version 1.1 of the driver just make - no need for steps 6-8) cp 2.6.x/Makefile . (the supplied Makefile for the 1.0 driver is for 2.4.x) I'm using 1.1, so I just need "make" which tells me: "/lib/modules/2.4.27-speakup/build/Rules.make: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target '/lib/modules/2.4.27-speakup/build/Rules.make'. Stop. There is no "build" folder for the Rules.make to be in... I've tried an empty "Rules.make" file in a build dir I made, but it seems to need some rules to be in the Rules file, go figure... How do I find or make Rules.make? I would greatly appreciate knowing what to do/try next. I have tried the other steps on the directions page, as well as what ideas I could find elsewhere, (such as the "empty. Rules.make file) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
