I can't figure why the driver installation stops at step 8 !!!!!

My problem is that I can't get the driver to install1
It hiccups at step 8 and stops! |

cmake and make is what *I* use to build it.

I'm sorry that typing "make" and "make install" (and possibly ./configure) causes you so much angst!

They are not mine, even though I've been using them professionally since 1980. As to "technology," I worked in "technology" from '62 to '10 -- I engineered in radio and TV broadcasting, did field service on a wide variety of audio and video systems, designed complex sound systems that required that I know circuit theory, electronics, acoustics, and speech intelligibility; to design and integrate wireless mic systems, I had to apply antenna design and transmission lines. I utilized very complex signal processing systems for large sound systems that ran on Windoze hardware, interconnected with wired Ethernet. A few years ago, managing my investments, I realized "technology" had come to mean computers and the internet. Silly me. 73, Jim K9YC |

And yes, I *AM* saying Win in a kvm VM is better . . . . far faster boots, similar run speed (depends on the VM config) and it can't corrupt the rest of t stem!

For example there is no RTSystems for Linux nor DXLABS, nor N1MM. Running those in a virtual machine is just not a reasonable process to mess with. Outlook LT Gil W0MN Hierro Candente Batir de Repente 44.08226 N 92.51265 W EN34rb -----Original Message-----

Some of us can afford to dedicate a computer to the shack, but I'd bet that the vast majority of hams must make ham apps work on the single computer that they already own, and that must do the rest of their computing. 73, Jim K9YC |

That, overall, is a correct statement! Having used all three major platforms (Mac, Win, and Linux) Linux is far, far, easier and infinitely more flexible in most cases. And LinUx *IS* very user friendly! (It's just a bit choosy on who it's friends are! :-) :-) ).
