I hope this is the right place to ask.
I have an Eeepc 1101HA (GMA 500 video card) and am trying to get the proprietary driver (v1.6) to work following
http://wiki.debian.org/IntelEmbeddedMediaGraphicsDriver
I am starting from a fresh install of debian squeeze (6.0.1a).
On this forum I found a [solved] topic for the same driver
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=45942
But I am somehow incapable of making it work.
First I have set the variables in the install script (see first link) and installed the necessary packages like make and gcc.
But when I run the install script I get
Code: Select all
root@host# ./install.sh -v

The build process of the EMGD DRM module has failed.
The EMGD DRM build reported errors.
The EMGD Linux Installer is exiting.
That was a bit of work because the file is in an archive so it is overwritten each time.
So I had to untar the file, change it, tar again and move over the old version.
But.. no luck same error
