Help installing (compiling) Wireless card drivers Asus PCE-N13

Hi all,

I have a Wireless PCI-Express Adapter which I wish to install the drivers, though am having difficulty.

The chipset on my card is a Ralink. I have visited the Ralink Website Ralink corp. and downloaded the RT2860 Wireless Lan Linux Driver version 2.3.0.0.

I have extracted the files within my home directory. I have read the readme file, and from what I understand I have needed to do… I have typed in the Make command as a “super user”.

Unfortunately I have had no success and it states the following output. Until now I have not had success in compiling software and would really really appreciate some assistance in doing so. If someone could help decode the meaning and help me decipher what to do with the following output that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you…

PLEASE do not double post. Even you will have problems kjeeping two threads of discussion apart and come to a conclusion, let alone others.

Shall I remove this one?
