I ran ./configure first in the root directory of the download and at the end
it gave this output:
Module configuration:
                    owlib is enabled
                  owshell is enabled
                     owfs is enabled
                  owhttpd is enabled
                   owftpd is enabled
                 owserver is enabled
                    ownet is enabled
                 ownetlib is enabled
                    owtap is enabled
                    owmon is enabled
                   owcapi is enabled
                     swig is enabled
                   owperl is enabled
                    owphp is DISABLED
                 owpython is enabled
                    owtcl is DISABLED

then sudo checkinstall

so what do you think, has it put the module in the wrong place?
What do i actually search for? Sorry not too familiar with this and I do
want to write to the device as i want to set up missions for it.
