gcc and make -missing.

I’m awaiting delivery of a router/modem to get my Internet connection up and running in Mandriva 2006. Having time to kill this afternoon, I tried running a script again for my SpeedTouch 330 in Mandriva. After so many previous failures, I thought I’d actually done it this time!

However, I got to the final stages of the script in Konsole, and then got these error messages:

Error: Cannot find gcc.
. /speedtouchconf.sh: Line 158: (gcc: integer expression expected.
Error: Cannot find make.
. /speedtouchconf.sh: Line 158: (make: integer expression expected.
Some required files are not installed:
gcc, make.

Out of interest, does anyone know how these files could be obtained?

Cheers,

Dave.

i think you need one of these

just select correct download for your system, presumeably you want this (if intel) then install (as root)

urpmi speedtouch-1.3.1-1.i586.rpm

goto here as i’m trying to get both 330 & router working at same time, but i don’t understand console’s output, yet, but it may be helpful to you

GCC and Make are development programs needed to compile programs/drivers from the source code. In mandriva, do urpmi make and urpmi gcc and any dependencies should be taken care of.

Thanks, guys. I’ll note your help for future reference.

I have since been able to install the ‘gcc’ and ‘make’ programs direct from the Mandriva installation DVD’s preloaded software facility. Actually, I was surprised how much useful software there is preloaded - certainly enough for my immediate needs!

The script I mentioned now runs without the gcc’ and ‘make’ errors being flagged up.

However, the script does require a microcode to be placed in the SpeedTouch directory mentioned here: SpeedTouchConf - Home

I have tried every means I know (copy/cut & paste, move, drag & drop – but I can get any suggested microcode into this directory – thus, the script throws up errors to that effect.

When I try to do the aforementioned actions, I get a dialog box pop up saying: “Access is Denied.” Can anyone shed any light on what’s going on here?

I’m hoping that all of this will be academic when my router/modem arrives – this one ebuyer.com - Networking » Wired » ADSL Modem Routers » Product details , but it’s good to have an alternative means if things don’t work out.

Cheers,

Dave,

Try changing the permissions of the directory where you want to put the microcode file. Do chmod 777 DIRECTORYNAMEThen copy the file over.

Thanks, Addis.

I’ll give it a go!
