[linux-audio-user] alsa driver install help

i am trying to install the alsa 0.96 driver with vxpocket support according to the instructions here: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php3?company=Digigram… card=VXpocket+V2&chip=&module=vxpocket I am in suse 8.2, kernel 2.4.20-4GB I have the soundcore module installed under the 'quick install' section I was able to create the directory and unzip the tar there. but I get stuck when executing the following line: ./configure --with-cards=vxpocket --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install after doing a bunch of checks, shell returns the following: checking for kernel version... The file /lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/build/include/linux/version.h does not exist Please, install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel sources (default is /usr/src/linux). so I tried it with --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux and --with-kernel=/lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/build, neither worked. At this point, gave up and went looking for a i586 rpm, and installed the following: alsa-0.9.6-0.pm.0.i586.rpm alsa-tools-0.9.6-0.pm.0.i586.rpm alsa-lib-0.9.6-1.i586.rpm when I installed the alsa-lib rpm, it said there were some conflicts with the first one, so i ran it using --force The vxpocket should apparently be installable thru yasT at this point, but there still is no module for the vxpocket anywhere. in addition, alsaconf doesnt run, a window pops up, but then it shuts down. at this point, I went back to the alsa page, and continued to compile from source. the libraries installed ok, but when I wen to install the alsa-utils, it starts, but gets an error, and shell says: configure: error: this pacage requires a curses library make: *** No targets specified and no makefile file found. Stop. make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop. this is getting really frustrating! any help is appreciated thanks! jamie
