Hello: I'm trying to configure my second ethernet card via YAST by selecting the following: System Administration|Network Configuration|Network Base Configuration ...however, the option "Network Base Configuration" isn't enabled?

[SuSE Linux] makefile
by markus＠nat.vu.nl 27 Mar '99

27 Mar '99

dear c-programmers of the linux-community, my problem is a small step for mankind but a big step for me: I'd like to compile a c program. the code is distributed over several files. "at work" (using sun or aix) I am used to type 'mkmf' in the directory where the code is located to get the proper makefile from a template. then typing "make" is sufficient to compile the program. is there anything similar for linux ? I read about the automake, but therefore you have to make configure files and other more difficult things than typing 'mkmf'. regards, markus -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
