errors after running make

2007-09-05 Thread Terrence Wilson
I'm trying to install ndiswrapper from a .tar.gz file. I'm running make 
for the first time, so I am unfamiliar with it. But I have read 
instructions for installing ndiswrapper. I keep getting errors, but I'm 
not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Here's what I did. I copied the ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz file from cdrom 
to /usr/src directory. Then:

# cd /usr/src
# tar -xvf ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz
# cd ndiswrapper-1.47
# make

After running the make command, I get an error message which goes line 
by line like this:

...
Makefile, line 57: Need an operator
Makefile, line 60: Need an operator
Makefile, line 67: Need an operator
...
Makefile, line 109: Missing dependency operatpr
Makefile, line 111: Need an operator
Makefile, line 112: Missing dependency operator
...
Error expanding embedded variable.
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/src/ndiswrapper-1.47.

After this, the root command prompt returns. Am I working with a 
makefile that needs editing or has errors; or what else I am doing 
wrong?

Have you tried gmake instead of make? (ports/devel/gmake)
HTH,

You're probably trying to use debian's version. However:

I do not know anything about this application, but you are almost certainly
using the wrong flavor of make.  Odds are good you want gmake, especially if
this it GNUish application, but there are also other flavors.

As someone else said it's been in base for a while and the ndiswrapper you downloaded only works with the linux kernel since the one in base had to be modified to work ont he freebsd kernel, 


oh yeah it's not called project evil for nothing :) it might panic your kernel 
and it might not. Just so you know before it happens
