madwifi on ubuntu or other distro?

I had started with FC4, loaded with madwifi for my wireless network. Because of problems with java, I have decided to work with something else. I then went with Ubuntu. I tried to install sharutils, but it said that there was no C compiler.

Do you know the preferable C compiler, or a preferred distro with the Gnome desktop?

well, you just need to get gcc usually... that is the gnu c compiler.. it will do whatever you want. ubuntu is debian based, so can you do like apt-get install gcc or somehing like htat. i dont know.. prefered distro..... i like slackware, but no gnome, but i dont like gnome or kde or any of that.... redhat has gnome, vidalinux is kinda coming along nice, and uses the most beautiful gnome desktop i have seen... goodluck...
