Dear All,
I'm new to Linux. To install the driver of my network card in Red Hat Linux 7.2, I had to compile it.
The driver is in a .tar.gz file, which contains some .h, and .c files, and a Makefile.
So, what are the steps needed to compile this driver? The help file included mentions that the user should compile the driver to have the object file, without any details of the compiling process.

Mainly running "make"'ll compile the driver, then make install to install it.
It's prefered to have a look at the README file included in the tarball, It may contain more information.
You may also need the Linux kernel source uncompressed in /usr/src/linux/
RedHat 7.3?
Why such an old version? Not considering upgrading?
What kind of network card, by the way?
