[Madwifi-users] build for Suse 8.2 not working

[Vijay G. <vi...@ga...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to build the madwifi module - did a checkout last night - and 
not getting very far.  Does anybody have any tips on getting it compiled 
on suse linux 8.2?  Here is what I get:

for i in ./ath_hal ./net80211 ./ath; do \
       (cd $i; make) || exit 1; \
done
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/madwifi/ath_hal'
make -C /lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/build SUBDIRS=/tmp/madwifi/ath_hal modules
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20.SuSE'

The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.
Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
Then build a kernel with module support enabled.

make[2]: *** [modules] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20.SuSE'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/madwifi/ath_hal'
make: *** [all] Error 1


I know my kernel allows loadable modules!


TIA,

Vijay Garla
