Well I got the UTS_RELEASE fixxed

not just having a problem with no UTSVERSION.h

This should fix it.

Step1: Check your kernel version



[root@localhost linux]# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30)) #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:54:20 EDT 2006


The first bold text is the command you enter. The 2nd bold text is your kernel version. Only the first three numbers are relevant, you can ignore everything after.

Step 2: Add this info to version.h



nano /usr/include/linux/version.h


enter the following line at the end of the text:

#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.18"

Save version.h and rerun make in the showeq directory. Now it shouldn't bring up this error anymore

Sorry still get

make

[eqhunter]

also this is whats in /usr/include/linux/version.h

#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132630
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.22"

main.cpp:14:1: error: unterminated #ifdef
main.cpp: In function ‘void displayVersion()’:
main.cpp:777: error: ‘UTS_RELEASE’ was not declared in this scope


I do not know. Try removing these lines from main.cpp:


#ifdef __linux__

// Newer kernel versions put this in utsversion
#ifndef UTS_RELEASE
#include <linux/utsversion.h>
#endif
#endif


Leave this line:


#include <linux/version.h>

See what happens.

I thought we needed root access to compile and install. Since you're using Ubuntu 7.10, try using this command:

sudo make && make install

Hope this helps

[BlueAdept]

Yes you need to have root access. I didn't think of that. I assumed he was compiling as root.

[eqhunter]

ok I got this from the sudo make
