yes and here it is:

I have the 8820 card.


Installing the Driver
---------------------

1. Unpack the distribution:
tar xvzf aureal*.tar.gz

2. Change to the driver directory and become root:
cd aureal*
su

3. Edit the Makefile to suit your system (SMP, CPU type, etc)

4. Type the following install commands:

If you have an 8830-based (Vortex 2) card:
make install

If you have an 8820-based (Vortex 1) card:
make install20

If you have an 8810-based (Vortex Advantage) card:
make install10

There is no need to reboot.

Note: if you get "unresolved symbol" errors during the install,
rebuild your kernel with sound support (soundcore) built in
(not a module).

Looks ok. On a second read, the source of these errors seems to be the makefile itself. Strange.   :rolleyes:   Can you point me to the site you downloaded this driver from?

Do you have a file called under /usr/src called 'linux'?

If not do
ln -s /usr/src/linux2.4.x /usr/src/linux

where 'linux2.4.x' is the name of the directory under /usr/src where your kernel sources are.

He should have it if he installed the kernel source.

He won't necessarily have a link to it called 'linux'

Hmm, did you do what the 3rd instruction reads?

The reason I'm bringing this up is because the last errors you quoted, look like a fault in the makefile. Hence, the parse errors.

Yes, you should also have a link called 'linux'. Do what I suggested in the earlier post.

I believe it stands for shared memory multiprocessor  something and no you don't need it. What else does the makefile read?

Before you reply do what flap suggested, that is create a symbolic link to your kernel source.
