Never mind...I chroot'd into the LinuxCNC Ubuntu install from a parallel Debian wheezy installation, which allowed me to grab build-essentials and the Intel e1000e driver source off the 'net. I also installed the linux-image-generic-lts-backport-natty (2.6.38) as a fall-back if I ever need newer HW support temporarily until I can build it for the 2.6.32 RTAI kernel. I guess I didn't really realize how long in the tooth 2.6.32 had gotten...where _does_ the time go?!? :) - -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+TbwEACgkQLywbqEHdNFxaLwCgv7HCESq+j4FbP3Uabka3UvVs AbEAoL7QRR7YluBPVtdk5rSBE/9sNf8q =DntF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
