Ok, thanks for the info
Device is a 0xc801 and vendor is 0x1093.
tnt4882.h was already set for that device, so didn't change anything.
I built the 2 packages. At the first glance, no compilation error.
However, at the very top of the compilation messages, there is an error:
"ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing."
I checked these 2 files and they are not missing.
The GPIB install doc says that the linux kernel should be recompiled.
That's something I haven't done. Is that necessary?
Thanks
