problem installing nivisa on ubuntu 8.10

Hi.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 and I wanna install NIdaqmxbase to use USB6009. The installation was performed in following manners:

 

-Download nidaqmxbase from NI website

-running the INSTALL script inside

-alien -d -k --script *.rpm

-dpkg -i *.deb

-rpm -ivh *.rpm --nodeps

-running all the <rpmBaseName>InstallerUtility.sh aftre installation

 

When I run lsdaq produce this error:

 

libnipalu.so failed to initialize
  Perhaps you need to run updateNIDrivers
  Aborted

 

but when I run updateNIDrivers seems all ok (nikal.ko was update)

 

but when I run lsmod appears only nipal mode and not the nipalk ones.

 

How can I resolve this problem?

I read the 2 post and I try to solve my problem, but nothing to do.

 

In the firt case I try to run /etc/init.d/nipal but it told me : missing nipalk.ko. Generate this running updateNIDrivers. If I run updateNIDrivers it seem to go fine, only a little error : Makefile.in not found (But the process terminate with nikal was update), and there is always the same error I wrote befeore.

 

I try also to install   NI-VISA-4.2.0.iso befeore nidaqmxbase, but when I try to run UpdateNIDrivers appares the same error : Makefile.in not found.

 

any ideas?
