Re: what do you mean you can't find stdio.h!!!

2001-01-30 Thread Jeff Weatherford
Thanks you all for the package name!!! but now hears one for you...i upgrade libc6 (for compiling the 2.4 kernel), and i couldn't apt-get it from the stable distro (the version # of libc was too high). i then downloaded libc6-dev from the unstable distro and now dpkg is saying that libc6-dev

I had the same problem with my 3c905b. what i ended up doing was upgrading the modutils (i was running potato b4) to the "unstable" version. then i re-make modules and re-make modules_install. once i did this, i had to add the compiled mods to /etc/modules. If there is an easier way, let me k
