[Alsa-user] Compiling ALSA

[Kasimir Gabert]

Hello,

I am having troubles compiling ALSA Drivers.  I am using Debian with a kernel of 2.6.8 (called 2.6.8-2-386), and I have the headers and the source (I installed source 2.6.8, which is the same thing).  I am not, however, able to compile ALSA ( 1.0.10).

After running './configure', I ran 'make' (both as root).  The response was:

=========================
...
Hunk #5 succeeded at 332 (offset 1 line).
Hunk #6 succeeded at 707 (offset -2 lines).
Hunk #7 succeeded at 768 (offset -2 lines).

make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.8-2-386/source: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** [compile] Error 2
=========================

I want to install the ALSA drivers to try to get sound to work on my Toshiba Satellite A75.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
