[Hpoj-devel] newbie question

[Erick C. <ec...@ar...>]

hello everyone,

I'm sorry to post to the "devel" list but I tried to subscribe to the "owners" list and got message that it had been moved to this
list.

I sent the message below but I don't know whether anyone received it.

any response would be greatly appreciated.  btw, is there a newsgroup that replicates this mailing list?

thx - e

I've just dowloaded the 0.5 version of the drivers and have a little problem.  the INSTALL file says I should:

	insmod ieee12844

but insmod complains:

	insmod: ieee12844: no module by that name found

if I run make inside of the ieee12844 dir is says:

	make: Nothing to be done for `release'.

here's a dire listing:

what am I missing?
