PEAK-System Forum

Just wanted to say thanks for Stephane and Michael's help - indeed Stephane's suggestion got the driver in no problem.


I would much rather use a newer distribution, but am trying to recreate something very old, which unfortunately has old dependencies.

Cheers,

Corky

Thanks a lot Stephan, that complied no problem. The issue now (after a sudo /sbin/modprobe pcan) is that a cat proc/pcan does not see the pci card.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the response.

uname -a gives:

Its 2.6.26.2-686 GNU/Linux

On an older Debian 5.10 system, I'm having trouble compiling the driver for PCI Card (i've tried various newest, back to 3.17!).

Installed linux-headers (2.6.26-686)
build essentiais

tar -xzf peak-linux-driver.6.0.tar.gz
cd peak-linux-driver-6.0/
make clean
make

This fails with Error 1 : No rule ...
