Sound Driver

[Fnoop]

I am trying to install a driver for my Aureal Vortex 2 soundcard under RedHat Linux 7.2. When I try to do so I get the following error messages (see below). I have tried changing the '-I/usr/src/linux/include' to '-I/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include' using gedit but I get the same error messages :-/ (I copy it exactly as stated).

========================

[Robert@localhost Robert]$ cd /home/Robert

[Robert@localhost Robert]$ ls

au88xx-1.1.2.tar.gz aureal

[Robert@localhost Robert]$ cd /home/Robert/aureal

[Robert@localhost aureal]$ make install

==============================

I'm new to Linux (obviously!) so any help will be greatfully accepted.
Though please explain anything you think might help in simple to understand steps!!!!!!!!

ps The puter is set up under a dual boot system with Windoze 98, the soundcard works fine under this O/S.

[the_JinX]

what if u first

./configure
make
make install

does that work?

[Fnoop]

Nope, have just tried that jinx, any further ideas?
