Attempting to install the drivers for my AVmatrix capture card following the instructions posted here. GitHub - GloriousEggroll/AVMATRIX-VC12-4K-CAPTURE: Linux driver module for the AVMATRIX VC12-4k PCI-E capture card
when I attempt to run the command in the konsole to install the driver I get an error.

HWS Linux Driver Installer
===================================================
Checking for required tools ...
Your system has one or more system tools missing which are
required to compile and load the HWS Linux driver.
Required tools: dkms
Please check hws_install.log for more details.
If you are experiencing difficulty with this installation
I have attempted searching for how to add the DKMS tool, but all I’ve managed to find is instructions for how to use it, not add it if it missing. So I’m assuming it’s built in already or I’m using the wrong command. Any information would be appreciated for how to get this driver working. Apologies if the format of this post is incorrect, still learning and will correct it.
