MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Dear all, I'm sorry for the silly questoin. My kernel version is 2.6.17 But I've just installed the 802.11 stack on my Debian 3.1. But I got that the module can't find some external module: WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.17-5/kernel/net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac.ko needs unknown symbol wireless_send_event WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.17-5/kernel/net/ieee80211/ieee80211.ko needs unknown symbol wireless_spy_update And I think that I'll have to install the NET_WIRELESS module. But I can't find it. When I look for wireless in menuconfig of the kernel, I found that NET_WIRELESS=n. Would anyone be kind enough telling how to enable NET_WIRELESS? Thanks in advance.
