About this ebook

DKMS – a useful tool for those who with each kernel change compiled new modules for supporting their devices.

The DKMS program is a mechanism of scripts enabling automation of compilation of external modules added to the kernel. Without this mechanism the administrator after each kernel change was forced to recompile the modules responsible for supporting their devices. This situation took place while creating drivers for graphic cards or external tests of the iptables firewall. The micro-course describes how to install the DKMS system in your own system and what the procedures of managing module compilation are.
