Can someone interpret this readme for me?
================
Getting Start
================
1. Copy ax88178-2.6.14 directory to your template directory
2. Now, you should have a ax88178-2.6.14 directory in your template directory.
Go to the ax88178-2.6.14 directory, and executing the following command to
compiler AX88178 Driver.
[root@localhost ax88178-2.6.14]# make
3. If the compilation well, the asix.ko will be created under the current directory.
4. If you want to use modprobe command to mount AX88178 driver, executing the following
command to install AX88178 driver on your Linux.
[root@localhost ax88178-2.6.14]# make install
================
Usage
================
If you want to mount the AX88178 driver , go to the ax88178-2.6.14 directory and executing
the following command:
[root@localhost ax88178]# insmod usbnet.ko
[root@localhost ax88178]# insmod asix.ko
or
[root@localhost anywhere]# modprobe asix
If you want to unmount the AX88178 driver, just typing the following command:
[root@localhost anywhere]# rmmod asix
[root@localhost anywhere]# rmmod usbnet
This is in a folder called Linux 2.6.14 that has these files in it:
56 -rwxr--r-- 1 ryan smbusers 51480 2007-09-25 15:45 asix.c
12 -rwxr--r-- 1 ryan smbusers 11208 2007-09-20 04:22 asix.h
4 -rwxr--r-- 1 ryan smbusers 590 2007-09-25 15:53 Makefile
4 -rwxr--r-- 1 ryan smbusers 2428 2007-09-26 02:06 readme
So, what is this template folder they speak of, and what is this ax88178-2.6.14 they speak of?
And I have no clue what mounting a driver means. I know how to mount a disk but how/why would you mount a driver?
This is for a USB nic. I can't get it to work so I want to attempt to install the drivers that came with it and see. Maybe that's the problem.
