Any ideas?

Thanks, Harvey Titanium

In some linux kernels LSM were converted into static modules, so there is no such API anymore. I do not remember exactly in the meantime if they have already reverted it back by kernel version 2.6.27. As far as I remember, even if they reverted it, they simply have broken compatibility with older API... (thx 2 hinote )

You may find further information here:

I find that answer very strange. Kaspersky states that SLES 10 SP2 - 32 and 64 bit are supported.

Software requirements:
One of the following operating systems for 32-bit platforms:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP2

One of the following operating systems for 64-bit platforms:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP2

That is from page 9 of kav5.7_linuxfsen


I am using the kernel off the install disk, no updates. This system is unmodified.

Ooops... you're right. Mea culpa...

I'm going to test this on my virtual machine...

hi there,

try to configure the kernel in /usr/src/linux-<version> or copy existing kernel config file from /boot into your /usr/src/linux-<version>



P.S. in the kernel configuration, enable the Loadable kernel modules support if disabled

That got rid of "Makefile:450: .config: No such file or directory"

But still have the Symbol version error.

Getting closer. Had to copy Modules.symver from the linux-obj dir to the true source dir.

cvs:/usr/src/linux-obj/x86_64/default # cp Module.symvers /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.60-0.21


Next error.

kavmon module compilation error

what about

make clean (or even distclean)
make

instead of single make?

ln: creating symbolic link `./Makefile.lib.c' to `../scripts/Makefile.lib.c': File exists

I've got the same problem on SLES 10 SP2 32-bit

"make clean" makes no difference ...

after "make distclean" kernel sources dont compile at all

I have also noticed that kavmon.pl tries to make symlinks to non-existing files (Makefile.lib.c instead of Makefile.lib, KBuild.include.c instead of Kbuild.include, etc. )

The problem was solved by running the kavmon.pl script from shell, not from Midnught Commander. The .c extension was somehow added to every filename when running Perl script from mc

to HarveyTitanium:

You dont have to copy Module.symvers. Install rpm package kernel-syms instead.

I did have kernel-syms installed. Also, I have never use Midnight Commander, I am doing it all from the command line.

Ok, I got it figured out. I forgot to run the postinstall.pl script, once I did that everything fell into place.
