Installing a driver
Hi All,
I am trying to install a driver for a CAN card of a machine running Ubuntu 8.04. It cames with three .tgz files for gcc2, gcc3, and k26. The current version of gcc is 4.2.1, which is causing me problems. I installed gcc-3.3 using
sudo apt-get install gcc-3.3
But when I run the make command for the driver, it still is using gcc 4.2.1, and as a result is not compiling.
How do I switch the PATH so that I am using gcc-3.3 to install the driver. I am very new to Linux, please help.
Thanks,
Brian
