When I run 'make menuconfig' in the kernel source directory, I found the Realtek RTL8192CU/RTL8188CU USB Wireless Network Adapter module in the Linux/powerpc 2.6.39.4-4 Kernel Configuration / \ Device Drivers / Network device support / Wireless LAN In menuconfig I saved the setup in to .config file. But when I run after 'make menuconfig' the 'make' command, I get error message: arch/powerpc/kernel/align.c: In function ‘fix_alignment’: arch/powerpc/kernel/align.c:704:33: error: variable ‘instruction’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable] cc1: all warnings being treated as errors make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/align.o] Error 1 make: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel] Error 2 What could be the problem here? -- Regards from Pal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
