Hey In my node application I have a INSTALL.sh file where I have the below code :

sudo reboot

fi
else

For testing it's working, I run the choose to run the file by clicking y in UI and it starts to get downloading. But When the gasket-dkms package portion comes it gets failed and throws error as below:

I have also tried uninstalling the package using the below command and tried running the INSTALL.sh file again but it didn't work.
sudo apt remove gasket-dkms
I need help to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
Answers
The error you're encountering during the installation of gasket-dkms seems to be related to a compatibility issue between the kernel headers and the gasket driver code. Specifically, the error message indicates a problem with passing arguments to the class_create function.
Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:
-
Check Kernel Version: Verify that the kernel version on your system is compatible with the
gasket-dkmspackage. It's possible that the package is not compatible with the kernel version you are using. You can check the kernel version using the command:uname -r -
Update Kernel Headers: Make sure that the kernel headers on your system are up-to-date. You can install the appropriate kernel headers package for your kernel version using the package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can use the following command to install the headers for the current kernel:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) -
Check for Driver Updates: Check if there are any updates available for the
gasketdriver or related packages. Sometimes, driver updates include fixes for compatibility issues with specific kernel versions. -
Review Kernel Module Code: If you have access to the source code for the
gasketdriver module (gasket_core.cin this case), you can review the code and see if there are any compatibility issues with the kernel headers. You may need to modify the code to resolve the compilation errors. -
Contact Support: If you continue to encounter issues, consider reaching out to the maintainers or support channels for the
gasket-dkmspackage. They may be able to provide further assistance or guidance on resolving compatibility issues.
By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue with installing the gasket-dkms package on your system.
