If you would like to build the madwifi driver for a different kernel version, two things are required: 1) kernel source in /usr/src/linux-<version> 2) run the script as: KERNELVERSION=<version> sh madwifi-driver.SlackBuild -In place of <version> use only the version, not the full path. The <version> -string from 1) and 2) must be identical. - Example: KERNELVERSION=2.6.22.7 +In place of <version> use only the version as you would see from the output of +'uname -r' when running that kernel. Example: KERNELVERSION=2.6.27.10-smp + The kernel module will then be installed to /lib/modules/<version>/.... You may use this SlackBuild to build the madwifi module for as many *different* kernels as you like and they can be installed alongside each other without conflict. -Requirements: - Kernel requirements: - Linux Kernel 2.4.23+ or 2.6.x series - Kernel source and headers of running kernel - No module versioning support - option CONFIG_MODVERSIONS - Wireless Extensions support in kernel - v14+ required, v17+ recommended; option CONFIG_NET_RADIO - Sysctl support in kernel - option CONFIG_SYSCTL - Crypto API support in kernel - option CONFIG_CRYPTO - HMAC support - option CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC - AES support (for WPA networks) - option CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES + Linux Kernel 2.4.23+ or 2.6.x series + Kernel source and headers of running kernel + No module versioning support + option CONFIG_MODVERSIONS + Wireless Extensions support in kernel + v14+ required, v17+ recommended; option CONFIG_NET_RADIO + Sysctl support in kernel + option CONFIG_SYSCTL + Crypto API support in kernel + option CONFIG_CRYPTO + HMAC support + option CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC + AES support (for WPA networks) + option CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES -Requirements for configuring the wireless card: - madwifi-tools -- suite of tools designed specifically for madwifi-supported cards - iwconfig -- part of "wireless-tools" package in N series - wpa_supplicant -- for WPA encrypted networks - in N package series +This requires madwifi-tools from SlackBuilds.org. |
