primax: Thread: Configure problems with latest CVS

Since updating to SuSE 8.1 I have been unable to compile the latest version of 
primax_scan in cvs.

Running ./Makefile.cvs gives the following errors:

autoheader: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure.in

Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found

SuSE 8.1 installs version 2.53-129 of autoconf and version 1.6.3-27 of 
automake.

Has anybody had any experience with these versions?

Thanks,

Mike.

I used the obsolete AM_CONFIG_HEADER. This is away now. I fixed it in the CVS.

There was the option "-a" missing after the automake call. It is fixed now in 
the CVS version.

Be carefull with the CVS version. It has a new not fully tested feature - the 
lamp daemon. This  controlls the lamp timeouts and does automatically 
lamp-turn-off. But there is a problem with the Linux module loader. If the 
ppdev driver is not loaded, it will complain about a not found device. This 
is not fixed yet.
So pleaseload the ppdev driver manually before using it.

Gruss,

Andre
