Re: [Alsa-user] how to compile on redhat 7.2

[Aaron G. <pro...@ta...>]

Installing the kernel source is not enough... you need to configure
the kernel. The easiest thing to do is probably to go into
/usr/src/linux, copy the config from the configs directory
appropriate to which version of the RH kernel you have installed
to a file named .config (e.g. cp configs/kernel-2.4.7-i686.config .config)
and then run 'make dep'.
