Windows Drivers for Wireless PROBLEM

English Network/Internet
#1

Well I use wireless and tried to get the windows drivers for it so I could use my wireless nic card which is a rt2500pci

Anyways I used yast to install it, and like usual it did not work, yast says its installed but its not. (Seems to be a problem with yast alot).

So that didnt work, so I found the source code to compile rt2500pci drivers and did make and heres what it output:


make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.25.5-1.1-obj/i386/default'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.25.5-1.1-obj/i386/default'
rt2500.ko failed to build!
make: *** [module] Error 1

I use Suse 11 and really need to get my wireless up.

There’s a number of packages needed to compile drivers.

To resolve those, just go into Yast, choose ‘patterns’,
click on ‘base development’ and let all that stuff
install, then re-try your compile/build.
