The hardware in my lenovo netbook is not covered in the b43 driver, so I am forced to install the STA driver. All other distros of fedora (14 and below) have a nice RPM package to install via RPM fusion repos. Unfortunately FC15 is too new to have such a nice little package.
So, my only option is to build the driver from the source provided on the broadcom site
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php
from here- following the readme i untar the tarball and attempt to run "make clean" and then "make" to build the driver.
this is the error i get
KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.38.3-18.fc15.i686.PAE/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
ive scoured the internet for hours looking for what packages i need to install to build in fedora. no luck so far.
any suggestions?
