[Openchrome-users] Problems building openchrome driver... "`./[config.h].in' not found"

[Dan Beauchesne]

Hi All,

I'm currently running Ubuntu Dapper X86 with Xorg 7.0. My hardware is
an MSI motherboard with the VIA P4M800CE \ Unichrome Pro chipset.

I'm trying to compile the driver from source but I can't even get past
the autogen:

autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy
configure.ac: 30: required file `./[config.h].in' not found
unichrome/Makefile.am:33: via_drv_la_SOURCES defined both
conditionally and unconditionally
unichrome/Makefile.am:26: EXTRA_DIST defined both conditionally and
unconditionally
automake: unichrome/Makefile.am: warning: automake does not support
EXTRA_DIST being defined conditionally
automake: libxvmc/Makefile.am: warning: automake does not support
libviaXvMC_la_LDFLAGS being defined conditionally
automake: libxvmc/Makefile.am: warning: automake does not support
libviaXvMCPro_la_LDFLAGS being defined conditionally
automake: libxvmc/Makefile.am: warning: automake does not support
EXTRA_DIST being defined conditionally
man/Makefile.am:30: invalid unused variable name: `driverman_SOURCES'
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

I've installed everything (I think) to build it on dapper, including
build-essentials, and the pacakges named in this post:

But still no dice. Any thoughts?

Also, after it is built, where do I put the driver? I've never done
this before. Just into /usr/local/lib/xorg is fine?

Thanks!
