Hi Jeff, > I can't get linrad to compile on a relative clean installation of Ubuntu > Feisty (7.04). > > ./configure can't find soundcard.h because it doesn't look in a path > containing `uname -r`. This is no error. Linrad looks for soundcard.h in some directories specific for OSS. If it is not present Linrad will assume soundcard.h is provided by ALSA (or legacy sound)

I do not know what you have to add, but Linrad does not require automake to work unless you want to change any of the .in files. > Here's the error output from ./configure > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop/linrad-02.34$ ./configure > checking for /usr/lib/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /usr/local/lib/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /lib/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /var/lib/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /opt/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /root/oss/soundcard.h... no > checking for /usr/lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /usr/local/lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /var/lib/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /opt/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /root/oss/include/sys/soundcard.h... no > checking for /dev/dsp... yes > checking for /dev/sound/dsp... no > checking for ./users_hwaredriver.c... no > checking for ./users_hwaredriver.c...

The only error is that the C compiler is not properly installed. I do not know the exact reason, maybe the run time libraries are missing. Have a look at config.log, it might advice what more packages you need to make GCC work. 73 Leif / SM5BSZ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <linrad@antennspecialisten.se>.
