Hi All,
I have been trying to compile the latest Madwifi drivers on Debian 2.6.8 kernel. First i copied my kernel config to a .config in the kernel-source and received the same errors then I used the .config from the madwifi.net and followed the install how-to. I am new to Debian and Linux in general. Here is a portion of the errors.

Thanks for any advice, help in advance.
Ron
