    Error compiling ndiswrapper

    Hi,

    I downloaded the ndiswrapper tarball from one of the mirrors provided by sourceforge.

    When trying to make the app, I get the error

    ntoskernel.c: In function `wakeup_event':
    ntoskernel.c:826: error: `task_t' undeclared (first use in this function)

    Make fails and ofcourse install too..

    Is this because of a bug in the source?
    Any idea's? Maybe download the tarball from another server?
    I have never compiled a Linux app before, so I'm pretty green..

    Thanks,

    Marinus

    Unless somebody at ndiswrapper forgot to include <linux/sched.h>, I'd say the problem is that you don't have linux-libc-headers and/or a kernel source directory on your machine.

    Hi Donald (I assume ),

    that is what I am thinking too, but strangely I succesfully linked the source (it is included I think) with

    ln -s ....

    Hmm....

    I guess I'll look at it again tomorrow. This is the last thing I need to do to finalize setting up Slackware.

    Thanks,

    Marinus.

    Do you have linux-libc-headers?

    Okay, I checked the packages and the only linux- packages that I have are

    linux-faqs- ... and
    linux-howtos- ...

    There are various libXXXX packages but nothing that resembles

    linux-libc-headers..

    Should I download them?

    Well first, do:
    Code:
    find /usr/include/linux -type f -iname sched.h 2>/dev/null
