Hi everyone! I am returning to Linux and would very much like to use Damn Small Linux on the internet. I am trying to compline the driver for my wireless connection and it tells me the make command in not found...can someone please help?

I am sure I read somewhere that make is included in the gcc1.dsl package. Hope that helps (and that I'm recalling that correctly) Cheers and beers Sarah Posted by doobit on Jan. 06 2006,15:31
You may not need to compile drivers for your wireless connection. What wireless card are you using?

I see they have a tarball here:< http://www.zydas.com.tw/downloads/download-1211.asp > Posted by Chile on Jan. 08 2006,08:45
Thank you...I have the tarball, but now, following the instructions that came with it, I still have to "make" the driver. I have learned how to install the myDSL extensions so that I have access to the make command, but it is not compling...I am trying to do this with a toram install...in the Makefile, I have to specify where the kernel source is located...can anyone help with this part?Thank you for all y'alls help so far. Anyone around here from Dallas? |
