Hi,

please install the kernel headers for your used kernel version 3.16.0-30-generig. In a standard Ubuntu installation, the kernel headers are included.

regards

Michael

[Dindin]

HI,

I've checked it and it seems that linux-headers-3.16.0-30-generic had been already installed.

regards,
Din

[M.Maidhof]

Hi,

please post output of :

ls /lib/modules/3.16.0-30-generic

and

uname -r

did you reboot your system once, after doing a kernel update?

regards

Michael

[Dindin]

HI,
Yes, i had restared the system.

Hi,

in the topic you said you are using Ubuntu 14.04.1, but kernel 3.16 is only available in Ubuntu 14.10? How did you install kernel version 3.16 on that system?

Please use our latest driver version 7.14 for that newer kernel.
The used peak-linux driver-7.4 will only support kernel 3.0!

best regards

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your info and notes.
Sorry for this....as i mentioned I'm pretty new for Ubuntu, so i might make silly mistakes.
The version that i had i just copied from the instal CD , and later on i was offered to update the system, so this caused the problem, and i also instaled the old driver by mistace....sorry

I have reinstalled the whole system in order to eliminate any further problem and installed the mentioned 3.16.0-30-generic headers + made a reboot.

Could you please review what have i received when i entered your previously mentioned commands into the system now:

Thank you so much for your assistance in advance,
Br

Hi,

please install the missing libpopt-dev as written in the following thread:

http://www.peak-system.com/forum/viewto ... f=59&t=256

and follow the instructions to test your setup.

regards

Michael

[Dindin]

Hello Michael,

Thank you so much for your assistance, the driver is working now!!!

* * * * * STAR SUPPORT!!!!!!!

Just one more question.
I wanted to compile the transmit or receivetest with common.c but had errors only.
din@din-Satellite-L30:~$ gcc common.c receivetest.c -o testdin
gcc: error: common.c: No such file or directory
gcc: error: receivetest.c: No such file or directory
gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.

Can you pleas adwise which is the easiest way to run these samples.

Thanks again,
Br Din

[M.Maidhof]

Hi,

to compile the transmittest and receivetest applications, simply cd to the test directory and call:

make clean
make
make install

if you want to extend the examples with new files, you have to modify the Makefile.

regards

Michael
