Ok so I emailed yesterday about this driver in ubuntu to which RIchard
kindly replied. I did try ubuntu 13.04 and the driver was already built
in. However I really want to have a fiddle with Kali linux which is the
new Backtrack.
Everything installs fine - except the ar8161 eth card. Ive followed this
using git to get it installed but Im running into problems Ill post my
errors a little below.
OK heres the instructions of what to do:
https://github.com/erikarn/alx
To build for linux you will need a few trees. We have scripts to let you
get all that you need:
cd ~
git clone git://github.com/mcgrof/compat.git
cd compat
./bin/get-compat-trees
cd ~
mkdir unified/
git clone git://github.com/mcgrof/alx.git
cd alx
./make linux
However when I try to do the
make linux
THis is what I get:
make linux
