I have been trying to install a wlan. Its an Asus wl-167g usb adapter. I have some problems getting the linux driver installed so I am also trying with ndiswrapper. I needed a 16k stack so I instelled a kernel with 16k stacks. Now when I try and install ndiswrapper I get
[enigma@localhost ndiswrapper-1.24]$ make
make -C driver
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/enigma/Desktop/ndiswrapper-1.24/driver'
Can't find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2187_FC5.stk16/build;
give the path to kernel build directory with
KBUILD=<path> argument to make
make[1]: *** [prereq_check] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/enigma/Desktop/ndiswrapper-1.24/driver'
make: *** [all] Error 2
[enigma@localhost ndiswrapper-1.24]$
In the ndiswrapper page http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Installation the prerequisites say make sure there is a link to the kernel source from the modules directory. I followed the instructions and get a file exists message in the terminal. But when I look in the /usr/src/kernels folder there is not a folder with the kernel name. There are only two folders named after the pre 16k stack kernels.
I am a complete linux novice can someone please help I been trying to get this wireless adapter installed for three days straight.
