Problems Compiling RaLink's RT73 Linux Driver on FC6
I'm having problems compiling the RaLink RT73 drivers for my EDIMAX EW-7318Ug wifi USB.
Error:
uname -r:Code:make -C /lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6/build SUBDIRS=/home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6-i686' CC [M] /home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module/rtmp_main.o /home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module/rtmp_main.c: In function ‘usb_rtusb_probe’: /home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module/rtmp_main.c:2065: error: ‘struct net_device’ has no member named ‘get_wireless_stats’ /home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module/rtmp_main.c:2085: warning: unused variable ‘device’ make[2]: *** [/home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module/rtmp_main.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/damber/Desktop/RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.3.6/Module] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6-i686' make: *** [all] Error 2
2.6.20-1.2925.fc6
kernel packages:
kernel-devel-2.6.20-1.2925.fc6
kernel-2.6.20-1.2925.fc6
kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.2925.fc6
It seems that either the source code has one or two bugs and referencing none existent variables etc, or that it isn't referencing the kernel source /headers properly.
Any ideas on how I can resolve this ? Your thoughts would be appreciated.
(...I seem to be doomed where linux and wifi are concered.......

Thanks

This build worked fine for me
when I had to set up a DLink USB dongle for my neighbor, but I was using an older kernel in Ubuntu 6.10 - Version 2.6.17. I don't know if that would make a difference or not.
