Hi all,

 

I have installed Red Hat Linux 9 on my Laptop (Compaq nx5000). It has not
recognized my network card

which is Broadcom 440x. I have downloaded the driver from www.broadcom.com
and have gone through

the README file for instructions.

 

1.	Installed the source RPM package using 

 rpm -ivf bcm4400-3.0.8-1.src.rpm

 

2.	cd /usr/src/redhat
3.	rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec

 

I am stuck here, when I type this command it complains about gcc not found.
So, I have installed gcc-3.2.2-5.

After I installed the gcc I am getting lots of compiling errors when I run

 

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec

 

Linux gurus please help me to get this working. 

 

Thanks,

Rajesh.
