Confused by the tutorial for patching WIFI; excerpt in thread




Patching the kernel
*
Download the b43 injection speed and fragmentation patch for the 2.6.24 kernel or for the 2.6.25 kernel. Kernels 2.6.27 and up need no patching beyond the basic mac80211 frag+ack patch.
*
Place the patch in your kernel sources or compat-wireless directory
*
Run 'patch -p1 -i b43-injection-<kernel version>.patch'.
This patch may not apply directly and may require that you modify the files main.c and xmit.c (located in $linux/wireless/net/drivers/b43/ and $linux/wireless/net/drivers/b43legacy/) manually
*
Recompile your modules with 'make drivers/net/wireless/b43/b43.ko drivers/net/wireless/b43legacy/b43legacy.ko', followed by 'make modules_install'.
*
The module should now be ready to use for injection.
*
Remember to reload the kernel driver or reboot your system before trying to inject packets.

im using the 2.6.28 version of jaunty, so all i gotta do is the mac80211 patch. this page seems to be deliberatively misleading and confusing.
