Martin This is a postinst file in your /usr/src/agrsm06pci-2.1.80-20090825 folder if the agrsm06pci-2.1.80-20090825 folder is not in /usr/src/ , move it there. Then with root permisssion, run # ./postinst or alternately the following commands; VER=2.1.80~20090825 dkms add -m agrsm06pci -v $VER dkms build -m agrsm06pci -v $VER dkms install -m agrsm06pci -v $VER If all successful # agrsm-test When you upgade to a new kernel, the dksm will automatically compile the matching kernels. provided that the linux-headers for the new kernel are also installed.
