the best way is
run make menuconfig
and load a config file of ur present running kernel
u can generally find that in /boot

and then after u load this config file,enable the support u wish to and save it and compile ur kernel

regards

Restatement

Thanks, but perhaps I should restate my problem. I know how to use make menuconfig. What I need to know is which drivers I must enable as what to get p80211.o built. Thank you.
