Code: Select all
Install the build-essential Package
When I tried to build NDISwrapper I got a whole raft of errors and warnings. I was about ready to give up at this point, as a Linux beginner I wasn't about to try and debug someone else's source code! Curiosity got the better of me and I scrolled up to find out where the first error had occured. "Couldn't find stdlib.h". I've been a developer long enough to know that this is pretty fundamental! A bit of research and I found out you need to install the "build-essential" package to get the standard libraries. You can do this through Synaptic (System > Administration > Package Manager) or by issuing the apt-get command as follows:
apt-get install build-essential
Thanks.

Forgot My OS, I have the Linux Mint 9 'Isadora' realease.
