[linrad] Re: fedora core 4



thanks for quikly coming back. I also found an old email from Roger W3SZ regarding an installation procedure under Debian, so I tried to follow it. I am not using an Intel machine , so I adjusted the kernel image and everything for my processor which is a K7.

Trying to install sgvalib 1.9.21 the compiler seemed to go thru well but then it got stuck as follows:

----cut---
                 from include/linux/sched.h:7,
                 from include/linux/module.h:10,

make: *** [installmodule] Error 2

Here's where I stopped now.  In case you have some idea let me know.
Seems like I am missing something under the svgalib_helper...

Ciao

Hello all,

I am normally a debian user but not being a fantastic linux super expert
I almost decided to go for Fedora4 on the station's computer to get
linrad installed. (and also to see something different on the desktop)

Now, of course after having downloaded the FD4 4 cds, I remembered to
have seen some comment about svgalib having troubles to compile under
FD4 (hi).  I can't find the mail about it can someone help? I'd be also
happy to stay with Debian, if someone knows how to tweak it maybe we can
take the discussion aside without clogging the reflector.  I'll surely



Hello,


If you want to continue using Debian, I wrote sometime ago some
instructions on how to install Linrad on Debian with the new svgalib
1.9. I do not know if they are published somewhere on the net. If
someone knows it please tell us where to find it. I have here the
original paper, but I know that some improvements were made by others,
so It would be nice if someone knows where is the good one.
I wrote  that paper when sarge was not the stable release. So I guess
there have been some changes since then.

So, if you are interested I can send you the notes I wrote.

post the outcome here once I am done,  for other's benefit.

I previously installed linrad OK on a Mandrake but I think it was an 8
or 9 something revision and of course the linrad of those days.

Thanks,
