netgear WPN111 wireless problems
Posted: Mon 31 Aug 2009, 11:40
G'day, I have just installed puppy 4.1.2 as a dual os with mint
The problem being that I cannot connect to wireless (although I can in mint).using my usb adapter. I undertstand the chipset Atheros is not supported.
I believe the only way possible is to use ndiswrapper which I downloaded.I also found out I needed the devx_412.sfs module first so that I can instal it. This is where I am stuck.
When I use the make command I get the following error message
make -C driver
make[1]: Entering directory `/tar/ndiswrapper-1.55/driver'
Makefile:34: *** Cannot find kernel version in /lib/modules/2.6.25.16, is it configured?. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tar/ndiswrapper-1.55/driver'
make: *** [all] Error 2
So the question is" how do I configure the kernel so that I can use the make command to install ndiswrapper and allow my netgear adaptor to connect to the net.
Thank you
