Uncompressing Xilinx ISE WebPACK Installer..................................................................................................................................................................................................... /lib/modules/misc/windrvr6.o: kernel-module version mismatch /lib/modules/misc/windrvr6.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.18-14 while this kernel is version 2.4.31.
------------ and the console is patiently waiting (no prompt), and the error dialog box is patiently waiting for me to click "OK".
So, I wonder, is there some way to spoof Xilinx ISE for Red Hat Enterprise into thinking that I have the older kernel? Or, maybe (yah, right) that Xilinx guy who shows up from time to time on comp.arch.fpga might have some suggestion. :-)
Frankly, I'm kinda surprised that it's gotten as far as it has, running a Red Hat Enterprise script on a plain vanilla Slackware box. :-) That's Slackware 10.2, basically right out of the box; and the "Single File Install" at Xilinx:
So, back to the question, can I spoof it? Or get enough source code to recompile and relink it? I certainly don't want to try to install a different kernel - that's WAY beyond my scope of "expertise". ;-)
Thanks! Rich
