How can I install driver in redhat linux?

I get driver for sound card but I dont know how install that

  1. it depends what format the driver is ?

    is it a make file or a RPM file?

    if its an rpm file, then you should be able to just click it , and it will install .. depends on the distro of linux you use.

    if its a make file, theres normally a readme file telling you how to compile the drive/install.. it's like a batch file , that moves the driver etc to the right place.

  2. here is an useful article
  3. visit the linux site
    there are many commands to install from net
    like yum,….
  4. uncompress ur driver file. the command is
    tar zxvf <file name>
    inside u will see a file named install or readme. open it and follow the instructions.
    the same way you can install apps in linux.
