Need a NI 488.2 driver for Susle Linux 11.1 (X86_32) to access my GPIB ENET/100

I have Suse 11.1 installed on my PC (X86_32). But I cnnot compile/install NI-488.2-beta-2.5.1b1. If I follow the instruction within the README.txt, the script finally stop with an error message, that the installed kernel is compiled with a different gcc version. I am using the kernel comming with Suse 11.1 and I don't want to recompile the kernel

 

It is a share library for NI488.2, not a kernel module. Am i right ?

Right now only Suse Linux distributions up to version 10.3 are supported, a list of supported distributions can be found here.

Thanks for the hints. I also figured out some more steps. There is already a newer version of NIKAL available (1.9.0f0) for SUse 11.0. But this will not compile with the kernel devlivered with SUSE11.0 or 11.1. You need to recompiled the kernel with NUMA support disabled. After that the kernel variable "max_mapnr" is available and the NIKAL kernel module will compile.  Earlier versions of NIKAL have problems to get the GCC version.

 

I installed the following driver and GPIB modules/libraries
nikal-1.9.0f0
NI-488.2-beta-2.5.1b1
  labview80-rte-8.0.1-1
  nikali-1.7.0-f0 not installed, because new version already installed
  nispyi-2.4.0-f0
  ni4882betai-2.5.1-b1
  nipali-2.0.0-f1

 

But the error is still the same with gpibexplorer as well as with my applications. libnipalu.so still aborts ..
