New to Linux. I am trying to install Creative sound blaster driver on Ubuntu 9.04 x 64. I have down loaded the driver to a folder on Home/john/soundblaster/XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00
In terminal I have done the following:
john@Study3:~/soundblaster/XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US-1.00 make
make seemed to work with no errors
This is where I am stuck on how to run install:
The instructions in the ReadME file state:
1) Goto source directory
2) Execute make command as root
make
make install
I have then done the following to get to the root
sudo su
root@Study3: /home/john/soundblaster/XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00 install
install returns:
install missing file operand
Where did I go wrong? I have supplied the path to the XFiDrv file but it wants the destination and I do not know what is appropriate. Can any one help?
