Makefile error
Hello,
I'm trying to compile a driver to my LAN Interface card Atheros 8132.
Anyways I did the following:-
1) Downloaded the driver. (l1c-linux-v1.0.0.11-test.tar.gz)
2) Extract it using (tar - zxvf l1c-linux-v1.0.0.11-test.tar.gz)
3) entered the src directory
4) make install
I will get this error
Makefile:61: *** Linux kernel source not found. Stop.
I don't have an Idea what is this or how can I solve it, reminding that Im new to linux and Im using CentOS5.4
Please help

I would suggest going the easier route and installing a prebuilt binary.
The ELRepo has it. Enable that and install with
Code:su -c 'yum install kmod-atl1c'

I can't use yum install because I can't connect to the internet because of the drivers.
Im trying to install the drivers for my LAN interface.

Then download the rpm to a flash driver and transfer it over.
