Hi all,
I have been trying finish to install my NI-PCI 5122, when I run nilsdev it
gives me the error:
libnipalu.so failed to initialize
Perhaps you need to run updateNIDrivers
Aborted
I ran updateNIDrivers but it didn't help. I have been checking the NI Developer Zone regarding similar issues. I made sure Module.symvers corresponded to the kernel I am running, and I did make cloneconfig and modules_prepare as in https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/8785. niSystemReport accused the following:
>> cat system.log | grep nipal

I tried to start nipal manually using the following:
>> sudo /etc/init.d/nipal start

FATAL: Error inserting nipalk (/lib/modules/2.6.34.8-0.2-pae/kernel/natinst/nipal/nipalk.ko): Kernel does not have module support
error: nipalk failed to load
possible causes:
nipalk was not versioned for this kernel (2.6.34.8-0.2-pae)
modules are not enabled for this kernel (CONFIG_MODULES)
unresolved symbols
possible solution:
if you recently installed a new kernel or have rebooted to
a different kernel then you were previously running then run
/usr/local/bin/updateNIDrivers
to version your NI drivers for kernel 2.6.34.8-0.2-pae
the "Kernel does not have module support" is does not make sense to me since:
>> cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep CONFIG_MODULES
CONFIG_MODULES=y
more details below, I attached the niSystemReport too, can somebody help?
I am using openSUSE 11.3
