Installing poldhu on FC4 for a 3Com X-Jack Wireless card (3CRWE62092A)


another NEW linux user -
my attempts at installing the poldhu driver have been unsuccessful.

The card successfully registers:
Socket 0:
no product info available
Socket 1:
product info: "3Com", "3CRWE62092A Wireless LAN PC Card"
manfid: 0x0101, 0x2092
function: 6 (network)

My real problem is I have no idea if installing the poldhu driver is even necessary.. perhaps FC4 already has networking & pcmcia support for the card, and installing poldhu is totally unnecessary.

But, since I don't know either way, here is the output from running the installation as directed:

[root@laptopFEDORA poldhu]# make config
make: Nothing to be done for `config'.

AND

[root@laptopFEDORA poldhu]# make config.mk
Kernel Version Running 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
Found Kernel Source Directory ()
grep: /.config: No such file or directory
scripts/setup.sh: line 69: [: -eq: unary operator expected
Pcmcia card services source needed but not found
Please give desired path.If you have the kernel
support for the PCMCIA card services you still
have to install the corresponding version of
the card services

I assume "make all" and "make install" would be pointless because of their dependencies on "make config".

I'm running 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4, and attempting to install poldhu-0.3.1.

Any great knowledge to rain down?
