Instaaling Wireless Drivers

[wma]

I downloaded the drivers for the WPC11 wireless card from

ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng/

and followed the instructions. But when I got to the command:

./Configure

the machine gave me the error: program not found even when I was SU or root.

What did I do wrong?

[gogalthorp]

Case is important in Linux, ./configure

[wma]

I did that and the system came back with:

bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

[gogalthorp]

What file did you download? did you uncompress it?

Are you in the right directory? configure should come with the package.

[wma]

Yes.

I'm in the same directory with the files

[gogalthorp]

List the files an see if it is there. ls or dir

[wma]

Yes there is a .ls appended

[gogalthorp]

Lets start over.

This is a package that must be compiled.

Do you have the gcc compiler installed. Probably be a good idea to also install the kernel-source as well. This can be done through Yast

[wma]

I downloaded the file

linux-wkan-ng-0.2.8.tar.bz2

from

ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng/

The instructins included do not mention the need for the installation of gcc however, it is already installed

[gogalthorp]

Ok one last thing. Are you doing this as root?
