the instructions in the readme for my wireless nic seem straight forward enough:
Code:
Build instructions:
* Create drivers/net/wireless/acx subdirectory inside
your kernel tree.
* Unpack tarball into drivers/net/wireless/acx directory.
* Add lines to drivers/net/wireless/Makefile:
obj-$(CONFIG_ACX) += acx/
obj-$(CONFIG_ACX_PCI) += acx/
obj-$(CONFIG_ACX_USB) += acx/
* Configure your kernel (perhaps "make oldconfig").
* Build your modules as usual ("make modules modules_install").
This will create acx* modules.
I followed the instructions explicitly up to the point of configuring the kernel. My problem is that when I try to configure my kernel with "make menuconfig" the module option doesn't show like I thought it would. Searching for "acx/ACX" turns up nothing.
I created the directory /usr/src/linux-2.6.19.1/drivers/net/wireless/acx
unpacked the driver to same and modified the /wireless/Makefile
what am I missing?
