Display adapter driver installation problem
I found the Linux driver of the card on the net. But this was for Red hat Linux and it is not in packaged format. There is an install.sh script in it. When I run the script., the install log file gives me the following output.
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.17/build SUBDIRS=/home/deepak/Desktop/Desktop/dripkg/agpgart-2.0 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.17'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.17'
make -f Makefile.linux DRM_MODULES=gdg.ko modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/deepak/Desktop/Desktop/dripkg/drm'
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.17/build SUBDIRS=`pwd` DRMSRCDIR=`pwd` modules
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.17'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.17'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/deepak/Desktop/Desktop/dripkg/drm'
When I run the install script, the errors on the screen are as folows:-
I verified that the /usr/src/linux-2.6.17/scripts directory does not exist and that is what the error below says.
I have to modify the script with Knoppix kernel paths and try to run it now.
