NI-VISA and openSUSE Leap 42.1

$

Hi everyone,

 

I'm trying to use NI-VISA on openSUSE Leap 42.1 (it says here that Leap 42.1 is supported) but whenever I try to run ./INSTALL the following error comes up:

 

ERROR: Kernel source does not appear to be installed for the 4.1.12-1-default kernel. Installation of the kernel-source package for kernel 4.1.12-1-default is required to continue this installation.

 

I have installed the kernel source for kernel 4.1.12-1 through YaST and restarted.

 

The weird thing is that I can continue with the installation and everything seems to work fine (no errors). However, then when I try to use pyvisa I get an error saying:

 

libnipalu.so failed to initialize

Perhaps you need to run updateNIDrivers

 

and running updateNIDrivers gives me:

 

ERROR: Error locating kernel sources for the requested kernel version (4.1.12-1-default).

 

which brings me back to the original problem. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated, thank you!

 

Michael
