SuperTrak Linux Driver Installation This document describes how to compile and install the new SuperTrak driver for Linux. Our driver is a module. You do not need to recompile and reinstall the kernel. Before you start: Be sure that your kernel source code is present on your PC, typically in the /usr/src directory under the name Linux-2.4.16 or another Linux version. You will need this source code to compile the new driver. Begin to compile the SuperTrak driver as the following steps: 1. Go to the kernel source code's directory, (for example, "/usr/src/linux- 2.4.16") 2. Run the command "make menuconfig" or "make xconfig" to configure kernel source codes. Configure "Loadable Module support" and "Processor type and features" the same as the kernel on which your PC is running so the driver can be loaded into the kernel. 3. Save and Exit the configure menu. 4. Run the command "make dep" as shown. 5. Go to the directory where our driver code is located. Before building the driver code, you have two choices: 1.) If you want run the driver in current kernel version and the kernel source directory is something like '/usr/src/linux-x.x.xx/', the 'x.x.xx' is the current kernel version, then you can just run make command in the driver source code directory. 2.) If you don't want run the driver in current kernel version, then you must tell the make program where is the linux kernel source directory. thus, you can run 'make KERNEL_SOURCE_DIR=/usr/src/linux-x.xx.xx' (without the quotation marks). for example: If your kernel source directory is '/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-5', then you can run make like this in command line: # make KERNEL_SOURCE_DIR="/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-5" You can also ignore the quotation marks, like the following: # make KERNEL_SOURCE_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-5 9. Run the command "make insmod" or "insmod pti_st.o" to load the new driver.Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
