I am unable to install ndiswrapper with install.sh on Debian (a recent knoppix hdd install). I don't receive any output when I run the command: sh install.sh both as a regular user, su, and su -. I am using kernel-2.4.24-xfs (from the knoppix install). I had good success with this under Fedora Core kernel-2.4.24, but can't get it up and running on this yet. I have a WPC54G card from Linksys. If anyone has any info on why the install script isn't working/if I can doing it wrong, please let me know! Thanks, Katie Dixon |

Make sure that you are in the directory with the ndiswrapper source and use the following command: sh ./install.sh Alternatively, if the script is marked as executable you can do a ./install.sh This ensures that you're running the install script from the same directory, not a random one somewhere else in your path.

At least my knoppix cd uses SMP (Ver 3.3). Try using without SMP. - -- ~ .''`.

I was unable to find out why exactly it failed, but you might want to try the following: Open install.sh with an editor, then find this section: --- snip --- if [ -f ${KSRC}/.config ]; then grep CONFIG_SMP ${KSRC}/.config | grep -q '^#' if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then error "SMP is not supported yet; disable SMP in your kernel." fi fi -- snap --- Remove this part. Make sure you really haven't enabled SMP in your kernel as you just disabled the corresponding check. Then try to run install.sh again. It worked for me then. For anyone else who's interested: I posted this to the list on January 4th, it seems like the second grep just quits the shellscript. Strange thing is, if I cut & paste it into a shell (adjusting the variables of course), everything works flawlessly. Just bugs me... -- Sebastian 'ttt' Steinlechner www.resourcecode.de |
