A small doubt regarding sound drivers
I have found a sound driver that mentions that
it has verions for Red Hat 6.0 to 7.0 (no mention
of debian) , a version labeled 2.2.16 etc.No
version for debian and Slack.
1 )
My kernel version is 2.2.19
the sound card directory (as I mentioned above ,
I un-tarred from the directory named 2.2.16 (on the cdrom).
It contains a file titled "vinstall"
some lines of which are :
#check kernel version
uname -r > myver
if ! grep "2.2.16" myver > mycheck ; then
echo -e " wrong kernel version ,should not install 74audio"
else
cp viaudio.o /lib/modules/2.2.5-15/misc/viaudio.o
2) The resulting directory contains files
modconf soundcore.o viaudio.o vinstall vunstall
I try out ./modconf , but they say that they can not executr the
binary.
whereas the command file modconf gives the following output :
modconf: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, dynamically
linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
I am contemplating editing the vinstall file
or copying the ".o" files to the /lib directory.
I am confused and am looking for a way out.
Regards,
Shyam
