Installing the cpci driver in Debian Linux version 3:

First verify you have the matching kernel-source installed on your system:

# ls -l /usr/src

A directory called kernel-source followed by the version number which must match your kernel (uname -r) will exist if the kernel-source is installed. If not, please install the matching kernel source from your media or preferred download source.

Create a symbolic link:

# ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source(version) /usr/src/linux

Download the latest source rpm driver: click here for driver download.

Change directory to where the src.rpm file is located:

# script
# alien -t 40002110_X.src.rpm
# tar zxvf [filename].tgz
# cd cpci-1.1.#
# ./configure
# make
# make install
# /etc/digicpci/rc.cpci start
# [Ctrl]-D

To load the module upon system reboot:

# update-rc.d cpci start defaults 70

A successful installation will create ttyCP# devices in the /dev directory. If the installation generated errors, please e-mail the typescript file created in the directory where you began the installation to: Support Wizards for analysis.
