Question What packagedo I need for 'make'?

I installed openSUSE from the KDE Live CD which apparently doesn't have a local repos on it :-(

I'm trying to get my wireless internet setup (see New User Having Trouble Following Sticky Instructions :-( - openSUSE Forums).

I'm trying to compile compile and install the driver from at76_usb - Linux driver for Atmel AT76C503/AT76C505 based USB WLAN adapters (I have a Linksys WUSB11 ver. 2.6 wireless access point).

I downloaded and installed kernel-source-2.6.25.5-1.1.i586.rpm (output of uname -a gives 'Linux deadbox 2.6.25.5-1.1-default #1 SMP 2008-06-07 01:55:22 +0200 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux') because the driver page says I need it. How do I know if "gcc version should match the one used to compile the kernel"?

But when I try to 'make' the driver I get 'make: command not found'.

I have no internet access from openSUSE at the moment, so I'm downloading the packages I need from a Windows box and transferring them via a USB stick.

What package/s do I need for make to work and are there any dependencies I need to get?
