The nxusb kernel module doesn’t compile on Manjaro Arch Linux Kernel 6.4.7-1

[ki5fty]

I am trying to compile the usb module on Manjaro running the 6.4.7-1 kernel and get the following error:

make -C /lib/modules/6.4.7-1-MANJARO/build M=/usr/NX/share/src/nxusb
CC [M]  /usr/NX/share/src/nxusb/nxusb-vhci-hcd.o
In file included from :

Hi
First make sure that you kernel and linux-headers are exact same version. If not sure do:
sudo pacman -S linux-headers

After that go to /usr/NX/share/src/nxusb and do as root(you have to login as root and not use sudo):

make clean
make

Let me know if that worked for you

Headers were already installed, pacman re-installed.  Logged into as from the terminal, same error:

././include/linux/kconfig.h:5:10: fatal error: generated/autoconf.h: No such file or directory

Hi,

perhaps the issue is because of the missing /usr/lib/modules/<kernel>/build/include/generated/autoconf.h file. Could you please check if the file is there? If not please do the following steps:

1. Uninstall NoMachine.

2. Uninstall all linux-headers by running this command:

pacman -Rs linux-headers

3. Install linux-headers by running this command:

pacman -S linux-headers

4. Check if the file /usr/lib/modules/<kernel>/build/include/generated/autoconf.h is present.

5. Install NoMachine.
