Hello all, maybe I have an understanding problem. It would be nice, if someone could give me some background knowledge.
IMO the linux-header-files are always needed, whenever I want to build modules for the kernel, i.e. the Nvidia-kernel-module. However, as I have not installed them, the building of my needed module (in my case it was the fglrx-kernel-module) succeeded. So, what is the reason, that the linux-header-files are for ? I do not understand. (Background is, that the package "linux-headers-2.6.17-1-amd64-k8" cannot be installed, due to the missing "linux-kbuild-2.6.17") So, in what cases are the header files needed ? Thank you very much for your help !!! Best regards Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
