Working Step-By-Step For Ubuntu (Add To README?) #56

Open mirrorsonthewall opened 3 years ago

mirrorsonthewall commented 3 years ago

This issue post is based off of other closed issues.

Secureboot was enabled, so from issue #3 it needed to be disabled and this guide says how to disable it. (Could this guide be added to Issue #3 or linked in README?)

(Note: When it asks to enter password character 7 for example, if you set the password as 12345678 then you can enter "7", or if it asks for password character 4, can enter "4")

(Note: I believe Secureboot must remain "disabled" for this driver to work, see "Is It Safe To Disable Secureboot?" - the answer appears to be generally "yes".)

Then after rebooting, (solution from issue #27) navigate to the veikk-linux-driver-master directory and:

sudo depmod

sudo modprobe veikk

sudo make all install clean

(maybe we could add to this post if others have problems and we work through them? I don't think other issues presented themselves)

Thanks, I will add this to the README. I thought I had mentioned Secure Boot on the README at some point but it looks like I didn't (explicitly, at least).

The 

depmod
modprobe veikk

saved me from:
