ndiswrapper installation help

Sat Jul 29, 2006 4:12 pm

I have recently dsownloaded a copy of Mandriva and am now trying to use ndiswrapper to find the driver I need. It tells me to type:

Code:
tar zxvf ndiswrapper-1.12.tar.gz
cd ndiswrapper-1.12
make
make install


THe first two have made sense and work.. However, when I type in "make", it says:

Code:
bash: make: command not found


Any help please?

Cheers :)

Run the command as root.
Code:
su -
[prompt]password:
(now you will be root so you can run make)
///OR DO THIS///
sudo make
[prompt]password:



If mandriva doesn't come with make, it sucks even more than I thought. Personally I would NEVER recommend Mandriva to anyone.
