    sorry about duplicate post, but maybe this compile topic helps somebody else too.
    How do you build drivers ?

    I got dvb-t usb stick but which driver needs to build from source, after tarring and compile by make error message appears:
    "File not found: /lib/modules/2.6.23.91w/.config at ./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 32, <IN> line 4."
    I compilet it in kubuntu, I am not very familiar with fedora based distros..

    so missing linpus kernel headers,how and where to put those?

    You should be able to grab the kernel headers by doing:

    sudo yum install kernel-devel

    for building from source you may also want to grab gcc and gcc-c++

    but it installs fedora kernel headers, not linpus.
