Another really dim question coming up... I'm trying to install thinkpad drivers for Debian. Instructions say to unpack the thinkpad.tar.gz (no problem there) and then to "cd to the root of the source tree for the kernel for which you want to compile modules, e.g., /usr/src/linux. Run 'make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot modules-image'..." I innocently assumed the root of the source tree would be /usr/src/linux-2.4.22. But when I do 'make-kpkg modules-image', I get: "We do not seem to be in a top level linux kernel source directory tree..." So I am evidently wrong. I tried installing (via aptitude) the kernel-source-2.4.22 package, and also kernel-headers-2.4.22-xfs-386, but that didn't help.
Can someone kindly tell me what is meant by "the root of the source tree"? I really shall have to find time to learn about sources and compiling one day -- it is always like cooking while blindfolded and with a clothes-peg on your nose... -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
