-The complete mistake is something like this:
-−
- Error:
- kernel includes at /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include do not match current kernel.
- they are versioned as ""
- instead of "`uname -r`".
- you might need to adjust your symlinks:
- - /usr/include
- - /usr/src/linux
-−
-The error, also if explained, could be not clear. In practice It results from the fact that the symbolic link:
- /lib/modules/`uname -r`/source
- /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
-don't point to the directory where are inserted the current kernel sources (which is generally ''/usr/src/linux- 'uname-r'''). It happens to those who use a kernel contained in Slackware, so I will try to explain It in terms of Slackware "packages". This can happen:
-* because the kernel source were not installed. In this case should be enough to install the source package which can be found in Slackware k/ directory. However, It is not granted that the problem will be solved, You'll need to see the second reason why there is an error.
-* because sources (also if installed) do not reflect the settings of the current kernel. The new Slackware 12 has some precompiled kernels (which means different settings), while just a single package for the sources (unless seeing the branch extra/). In particular, the sources are for the SMP kernel and so if you use a non-SMP kernel can appear this error. To avoid this, after making sure that the package source has been installed, do simply the following:
- #> cd /usr/src/linux
- #> cp /boot/config .config
- #> make
-:running make, in addition to compiling the kernel modules (which we will not use), some header files are regenerated, and they will reflect the kernel configuration (as it's set in the .config file).

-This wiki explains how to install the proprietary ATI drivers in a Slackware Linux distribution, creating, thanks to a SlackBuild, packages that can be installed through the '''installpkg''' command.

-This wiki DOES NOT explain how to improve performance. In particular, It provides only a minimal description of how to set up the X.Org server with the only purpose of loading the proprietary drivers (a description on how to configure the X.Org server to increase performance can be found, in italian, [http://www.slacky.eu/wikislack/index.php?title=Installazione_driver_ATI_su_Slackware_GNU/Linux here]).

-All commands starting with a '#>' must be executed with root rights, while commands beginning with '$>' can be performed by a user without such rights.
