Thanks. The build went OK (after I installed dkms) but the install
failed because xx was in use -- see output below. Should I modify
pre_install.sh and if so, how? And which commands do I then run, and in
which order? Is it a case of editing dkms.conf, commenting out or
removing the first 3 lines and re-running from the dkms install command?
Sorry to be such a pain but I'm learning all the time -- it keeps my
71-year old brain busy!
