A sym-link already exists for Module.synmvers. As you can see I also had to point to my kernal source. I'm not sure of how to proceed? I following the directions of Andrew18 to get my wlan up and working.

Thanks All.

Are you trying to compile a kernel for a different kernel version then you are using?

If you have the kernel source package installed, try it without the KSRC= option.

Another option is to run "make rpm" instead.
I did this by dropping the ndiswrapper tarball into /usr/src/packages/SOURCES and extracting the ndiswrapper.spec file into /usr/src/packages/SPECS/
Then in the SPECS directory, I ran the command: rpmbuild -ba diswrapper.spec
This built two RPM files ( in the ../RPMS/x86_64 on my laptop) which can be installed with yast.
When I update the kernel, I will need to re-install the kernel module rpm with a name similar to:
kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.13-15.7-default-1.8-1.x86_64.rpm

I'm not doing any kernel compiling. I also need to add the argument KSRC="path to kernel source" or else make can not find it?

I'm guessing that this is not a "need to reboot" situation. I installed the kernel source, gcc and other programs as per the directions of Andrew18, though I did not restart my session or reboot.

Thanks,

Erik

So, I guess I should have read the INSATLL file that came with NDISWRAPEPR. Though i still have a question.

I do not have the below in my kernel directory. No "include" directory or a ".config" file?

"should have at least 'include' directory and '.config' file."

Actually, I found the "include" directory in the kernel source directory. Course I still can not find the ".config" file?

I'd appreciate some insight. I'll keep hacking away and post if I find the answer.

did you ls -a?
