That's true. It doesn't help to choose among the many gcc compilers on the DVD. Can I assume that gcc-c++ is the way to go? Or is gcc43-c++ the one with the brass ring? Or gcc43? Or what?
I suspect "zypper in gcc" will get you what you need.
That caused the system to try to access the non-oss repository, because it complained that it couldn't resolve download.opensuse.org. The problem is that I am trying to get the Ethernet card to work, and there is no other way to reach the outside world. It stands to reason that the necessary compiler has to be on the DVD. But there are many likely looking gcc compilers on the DVD; so far I know that gcc43 and gcc43-c++ don't help. Which one does it want?
Disable all repo's except for the *dvd* or add it if it isn't in the list, then zypper ref and zypper in gcc.
That made the modules without errors. There are two warning messages that I assume are expected, indicating that some facility is not supported by the driver:
r8168_n.c.:526: warning: 'rtl8168_ocp_gphy_read' defined but not used r8168_n.c.5292: warning: 'rtl8168_reinit_task' defined but not used
The rest of the compilation finished, apparently in good order.
seems to have found the installed driver. But
, according to the instructions, was expected to include in its response a line about eth0, but there is no such thing in its two paragraph, which seem otherwise to be in order. Also worrying is that I now notice in Network Settings/Overview that in the lower window the name of the Ethernet card is followed by "(no hwinfo)"
And the upshot is that the network is unreachable. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
