Make error

[DukeOfJamming]

Hi, I am using Manjaro with the 4.19.34-1 Kernel installed. When I run the make file I get the following error:

[benjamin@benjamin-pc Netgear-A6210]$ make export DBGFLAGS

Building driver with debug messages

cp -f os/linux/Makefile.6 /home/benjamin/Documents/Netgear-A6210/os/linux/Makefile make -C /lib/modules/4.19.28-1-MANJARO/build DBGFLAGS=-DDBG SUBDIRS=/home/benjamin/Documents/Netgear-A6210/os/linux modules make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/4.19.28-1-MANJARO/build' make[1]: No rule to make target 'modules'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/4.19.28-1-MANJARO/build' make: [Makefile:64: debug] Error 2

I looked around at other people who had this problem. I have checked that I have the linux419 headers installed in package manager. I also tried making that folder since my modules folder only had a 4.19.34-1-MANJARO folder. The last thing I tried was manually setting the make file to use the folder that the make error was trying to use, that offered no change. When I set the make file to manually use the newer .34 folder it got a bit further and then got stuck saying the same error, the output is below:

[benjamin@benjamin-pc Netgear-A6210]$ make export DBGFLAGS

Since a bunch of old posts said you need the linux49 headers I tried installing them but from what I have read now I don't think I need them as that isn't my kernel version? Sorry I am kind of new to this so any help would be appreciated.

The same Error on Ubuntu 18.04, Linux 4.15.0-53-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 13 09:24:30 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Try updating to Linux 5(.1/.2); the newer kernel version has native support for the chipset the Netgear A6210 runs, per my testing on Arch Linux and Linux v5.1.12 (yes, I know .15 is newest, but oh well).

Try this fork, which seems better maintained: https://github.com/Netgear-A6210-linux-driver/Netgear-A6210
