Wifi issue and AMD64



Hi, 

I just bought a ferrari 3400. And verything seems to
works beside my WIFI and Sounds (work but using OSS..
I have a strange noise when using ESD from gnome until
I start playing a music....).. I have installed the
debian testing CD (supposely I should be in 32 bits
mode)

Anyway  I have few questions as I have some problems
configuring the WIFI:

1)  have installed this package as I have an AMD64 
* kernel-image-2.6.10-9-amd64-k8

is it a 32 bit package or 64bits? 
Anything special to this kernel ?   

Am I better of using a really x386 package for now?

2) I need to use the ndiswrapper for my broadcom WIFI
card ,  I have downloaded the 2 packages
kernel-source-2.6.10 and kernel-headers-2.6.10-9  I
have bunzip2 and untar both of them
I made a link /usr/src/linux to point to the
kernel-source-2.6.10
I tried to compile using /debian/rules binary-modules
and here is what  I get:
> # build and install the module
> /usr/bin/make KPKG_EXTRAV_ARG= KSRC=/usr/src/linux \
> KVER=2.6.10-9-amd64-k8 \

Any help would be really appreciated!

Thanks
