Re: make menuconfig problem - Thanks
A very late but heartfelt thanks. I have been unable to respond properly for the past several days as I struggled with the postfix setup. This has finally been resolved with a great deal of help from Andrei. On Wed, Sep 12, 2007 at 12:25:24PM -0400, Mark Copper wrote: > On Wed, Sep 12, 2007 at 11:58:38AM -0400, Thomas H.

I know there is another package which must be installed before make menuconfig will work but I have forgotten what it is. Please refresh my memory. Tom George -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is not an essential package, which is why your fix-broken-upgrade and friends had not worked. You could still have run make config without any trouble, as it doesn't require the ncurses libraries. noah -- ___ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html pgpRqGrLPX14j.pgp Description: PGP signature
Make Menuconfig Problem
I sent this message two days ago but missed any answers as I had not subscribed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am recovering from a disk crash and installed linux2.2.17 from an official binary-i386, version 2.2_r0 CD set. I rushed and missed the option which would have included parport in the installation. My plan to correct this was to download linux-2.2.19.tar.bz2 and build a new kernel. All went well until make menuconfig. This aborted with the message: In file included from lxdialog.c:22: dialog.h:29 curses.h No such file or directory I have run apt-get update and apt-get --fix-broken dist-upgrade. I have checked required versions of the packages listed in the Changes file and obtained all the necessary updates. I still cannot run make menuconfig. How do I correct this problem?

Make Menuconfig Problem
Recovering from a disk crash I installed linux2.2.17 from an official debian 2.2-r0 CD set but overlooked the setting which would have included a parport in the kernel. To correct this I decided to build a new kernel. I downloaded linux2.2.19.tar.bz2 from the linux web site, unpacked it and tried to run make menuconfig. The program aborted with the message: In file included from lxdialog.c:22: dialog.h:29 curses.h No such file or directory apt-get --fix-broken dist-upgrade reports all my files uptodate for the stable distribution. I have also updated versions of all the required files listed in Documentation/Changes. What have I missed? Tom George

make menuconfig problem
Can anyone tell me why I keep getting this message when I try to 'make menuconfig' on my system to try to recompile my kernel. I also get the same basic error message when trying to 'make dep' so therefore I cannot properly recompile my kernel :(( Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW It was suggested to me that I edit Makefile, but as I am not that far along in my learning of C programming, I dont know what needs edited, if anything, which my first guess tells me it is not a problem with the Makefile or it would have been well documented by now.
