[SLE] make: command not found
I'm a newbie so humor me here. When I issue the "make" command, I get the following response, "bash: make: command not found". Background: I want to install drivers for my Cisco Aironet card. The install instructions say that I need at least pcmcia-cs-3.1.26 (Card and socket services). I found pcmcia-cs-3.1.30.tar.gz, and unpacked into /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.30. Then a I then unpacked the Cisco drivers to that directory, then tried to run the "make config" command, when I receive the error stated above. After speaking to a Cisco tech w/ minimal Linux experience, I was told that I should have make program, and that it's not installed. Can someone help me out here?

Hi, You need to install the 'gcc' and 'make' packages... ...and other development libraries that may be neccessary. Use YAST2 --> Install Software to install these packages. Regards Q On Tue, 2002-12-03 at 06:18, Dustin Lenz wrote:

I installed the gcc and make packages via YAST2 and it worked.
Then I had to install the source tree via YAST2, that worked too.
Trouble free (so far), thanks for the input!

After doing the 8.1 update from 8.0 I am having problems with Yast Online Update - it will not sucessfully download anything! In particular, when I run Yast, it tries to download an update for YOU, and fails: Retrieving you: "YOU update" Ok Retrieving you-devel: "YOU update developer packages" Error: Signature check failed. Download finished. Any ideas?
If you have done an 8.1 default install, your bash console should be able to find the make command. I really find it surprising that you are having this problem. 8-/ Before you do anything, check your PATH variable by typing "set" at the command line and look for the PATH= value, or type echo %PATH% on the bash command line. If the path looks ok, then use Yast to "install" the needed commands. 8-/ I have SuSE 7.2 Personal and I did the default install and got make and all of the other commands available in the bash shell. But, hey, that was several releases ago. Good luck. --RJ Dustin Lenz wrote:

And check if make is installed with "rpm -q make" -- Mads Martin Jørgensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogic, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A. P. J.

Is that right? I thought I had done a default install, but needed to go back and install the compiler toolchain and so on afterwards. But memory could well be faulty here ... The easiest way to get all the development tools aboard seems to be Put your SuSE cd in the drive Start Yast2 Install / remove software You'll see a drop-down list of Selections, tick the box marked C/C++ compiler and tools, click Accept and feed it the disks it needs. You should then have all the necessary gubbins to compile your drivers.

No, my 8.1 did not have make installed by default, I had to do it later (development packages). Not everybody does a compile :-) -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
