[Alsa-user] Installing under Mandrake 8.1 version.h file

[Patsy <gh...@te...>]

I am trying to install alsa-driver-0.5.12a under Mandrake 8.1. When runing the
"configure" script I recive the following errors:

checking for kernel version... expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
fail (probably missing /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h)

The kernel version information for mandrake 8.1 is held in the
/usr/include/linux/version.h file. how do I alert the configure script to these
changes? Is there a command line swich, or should i edit the hard code, and if
so what parts?

Thanks,
-Patsy
