Hi, I tried recompiling the kernel to include sound support for a newly acquired card. I got an error that I don't understand. I'm using Deb 1.3.1, kernel 2.0.30. The card is of unknown manufacturer, 16 bit, chipset ESS 1868. I pretty much followed the same compile instructions that I used to make the custom kernel that I have been using until now. My understanding of what is happening in all these steps is pretty limited, so please keep any answers simple. If any info is required in addition to the following excerpt from make zdisk, I'd be happy to send it along.
TIA, Gerald Crimp ######################################################################### make[2]: Entering directory /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.30/arch/i386/boot/compressed' tmppiggy=/tmp/$$piggy; \ rm -f $tmppiggy $tmppiggy.gz $tmppiggy.lnk; \ if hash encaps 2> /dev/null; then \ objdump -k -q -o 0x100000 /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.30/vmlinux > $tmppiggy; \ else \ [snip] rm -f $tmppiggy $tmppiggy.gz $tmppiggy.lnk objdump: illegal option -- k Usage: objdump [-ahifdDprRtTxsSlw] [-b bfdname] [-m machine] [-j section-name] [snip] at least one option besides -l (--line-numbers) must be given objdump: supported targets: elf32-i386 a.out-i386-linux srec symbolsrec tekhex binary ihex trad-core encaps: not found [snip] make[2]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.30/arch/i386/boot/compressed' make[1]: *** [compressed/vmlinux] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.30/arch/i386/boot' make: *** [zdisk] Error 2 root:/usr/src/linux # ####################################################################### -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
