looking for some help here with a makefile. when i run make i get:
"make: Nothing to be done for `default'."
in the folder there is the makefile (below) and the C source code. I'm
using a fairly recent Linux Mint 11 (katya) install on an Acer 8371G
and the purpose of the code is to switch off the ATI graphics adapter
and let the thing run with the low-power integrated Intel.
I copied and pasted the hack from
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1242590.html and it "made"
& ran quite well under Mint 9
i have the standard development files installed; make, binutils,
build-essential, gcc, linux-headers, etc. - am i missing something?
makefile:
ifneq ($(KERNELRELEASE),)
obj-m := lenovo_acpi.o
else
KERNELDIR ?= /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD := $(shell pwd)
default:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) $(EXTRA_FLAGS) modules
clean:
$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) M=$(PWD) $(EXTRA_FLAGS) clean
endif
/makefile
