[ILUG] IEEE 802.11 libraries compile failure

[Cian Davis]

Hi All,
I'm trying to compile the IEEE 802.11 libraries
(http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net) so that I can use the IPW2200 drivers
(http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net) for my Intel Centrino 2915AG Wi-Fi adapter.

However, compilation of the ieee80211 libraries isn't completing with
'Warning: "init_module" $file undefined' or cleanup_module undefined.
Full log below. All previous versions have been removed. I'm using a
2.6.11 kernel from apt.

Uncle Google is either giving me people with the same problem or a
possible solution in Chinese or something.

I'm using Debian unstable and just did an apt-get dist-upgrade from
HEAnet. Only packages available on apt are source packages for both and
I don't want to use these are they don't update fast enough.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Cian
