This warning can be safely ignored.
For compatibility with the pre-built drivers the existing name format is
retained for Linux 2.4 drivers e.g., sptcpi-2.4.18-14smp.o. However, this
name format causes problems under Linux Kernel version 2.6; therefore, all
Linux 2.6 drivers are named sptpci26.ko.
An install script, named install_spci_cpm.sh, is included in the package.
This script installs the device driver, automatically allocates the major device
numbers, and creates the four appropriate device nodes. This replaces the
manual procedures to perform these operations, as described above.
The install script supports an optional remove parameter. This causes the
device driver to be removed and the device nodes to be deleted.
The installation must be performed by a user with root privileges.
3.4.3 Verifying Device Driver Loading
When the device driver is loaded it outputs status messages to the system
log.
The system log is displayed using the command:
dmesg | more
An example message is:
sptpci V1.06
Copyright (C) 2000-2007 Dialogic Corporation. All rights
reserved.
Using major device number 127.

3.5 Software Installation for Solaris
The Development Package for Solaris is distributed electronically. The
distribution is in the form of two compressed files called dpksol32.Z and
dpksol64.Z for use with 32 bit or 64 bit kernels respectively.
The Development Package is suitable for use in the following configurations:
• Solaris 9 (32 and 64 Bit)
• Solaris 10 (32 and 64 bit)
3.5.1 Installing the Development Package for Solaris
Copy the appropriate file to the Solaris system. Take care to ensure the
binary file integrity is maintained and the ".Z" file suffix remains in upper
case.
The file must then be uncompressed and installed as shown below.
Note: This installation must be performed by a user with root privileges.
uncompress <dpksol32.Z / dpksol64.Z>
pkgadd –d <dpksol32 / dpksol64>
The Solaris package installation utility (pkgadd) prompts for further input.
