I have just installed Debian on a Copmaq Presario 5070, but my ethernet card was not recognized. I have a manufacturer-provided driver for it, but I only have the source, so I must compile it and connect it to the system.

The make file calls for gcc and some other software, so I have to install those first, but so far I have not even been able to find the "make" module in the mess of packages that are provided. Isn't there some kind of meta-install package that will install the software you need to compile and link a driver?

TIA,

Dan Killoran
