Hello aguan,

Please build the driver by just executing:

Code: Select all

make

I would recommend to follow the Quick-Start-Guide for now.

Is there any specific reason you want to build the driver like this?


Best Regards

Marvin

[aguan.zhang]

Hi Marvin,


I build the driver by following the Quick-Start-Guide. and only excuting:
make
sudo make install

no other operation.

[M.Heidemann]

Hello Aguan,

Thanks for the Info.

Is secureboot enabled on this system?

This will prevent third-party-modules such as this driver from being loaded.

Please check your BIOS settings and check if secureboot is enabled.

Please report back to me if this was the cause for this.



Best Regards

Marvin

[aguan.zhang]

Hi Marvin,

It can be loaded successfully after disable the secure boot on Ubuntu 18.

Thanks very much.
