Exclamation Can not install Ieee80211 or ipw2200

I am running Fedora Core 6 on a Dell Inspiron 6000 with a intel pro 2200BG wireless card and I have been having trouble getting Fedora to recognize it. I have already downloaded and unpacked ipw2200 and it tells me to first install ieee80211. So I downloaded version 1.2.17 of ieee80211 and when i tried to make it it comes up saying:

[root@localhost ieee80211-1.2.17]# make
Checking in /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build//.config: No such file or directory
egrep: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build//include/linux/autoconf.h: Nosuch file or directory
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build M=/root/ieee80211-1.2.17 modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'modules'. Stop
make[1]: Leaving directory '/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build'
make: *** [modules] Error2


What should I do about this? Any help would be appreciated.

Did you download kernel-headers? When you enter in the shell

Code:
cd /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/
you see build in red or blue? This error can be caused by u haven't download kernel-headers..

you can find kernel-devel*.rpm in fedora's install iso file or dvd, and install it, then the make will work
