Anybody try executing 'make cloneconfig' in 10.2 GM?
10.2 GM is not factory, factory is what will become 10.3 next summer, so
this is something for the [opensuse] list. But:
Here is the sorry result:
dhcppc0:/usr/src/linux # make cloneconfig
/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.2-34/scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 11: gcc: command
not found
/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.2-34/scripts/gcc-version.sh: line 12: gcc: command
not found
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
/bin/sh: gcc: command not found
make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 127
make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2
There result isn't sorry, it simply means that you don't have a compiler
installed.
The command
/sbin/yast2 --install gcc
will install a compiler for you.
There's also a lot of documentation collected in various wikis, with the
most important and most often repeated information being that you need
kernel-source AND make AND gcc in order to build an external module.
For 'years' I have been compiling the nVidia driver and therefore have
always installed the kernel-source. But I do not recall ever having to
install make or gcc. When did they stop being a default installation?
For 2 releases at least.
Ciao, Marcus
How then....?
Oh, I know. This is the first time I did not select the (whole) Linux
Kernel Development 'pattern' when installing 10.2 and chose only the
kernel-source.
It's all these little unexpected surprises in Suse which always brighten
my otherwise dreary day..... :-) .
Cheers.
