rr1740 Driver to Opensuse11

Hello

who can help me with installing a raid hpt raid1740 driver to a existing system?
I boot from a normal ide disk. I like to add a Raidcontroller with 3disks to get more diskspace. I have a other system with Opensuse 10.2 and the same controller, at that time i could install the driver from hpt 1740 opensuse 10.2 with no problem.
But now there is only a open source linux driver (http://www.highpoint-tech.com/BIOS_D...10-1311.tar.gz), not special to opensuse. Who is fit and can help me to build, integrate the driver to opensuse?
I thought a new OS should have more device drivers…

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

what i did exactly:
I installed gcc, make and kernel-sources.
I copied the rr174x-linux-src-v2.10 in a directorie and did unzip.
I went to the directorie “…\linux”.
I do:
make
and i get back
no such file or Directory expr syntax error *** only kernel 2.4/2.6 is supported but you use 2 Stop
What is wrong? How can I do a successful functional hpt rr1740 driver?

Thanks!
