Re: Install prism2_usb without compiling

["J.Manrique Lopez de la Fuente" <jsmanrique@socios.asturlinux.org>]

Ok,

I've read that but, I can't compile it:

jsmanrique@Dagobah:~/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre23$ make config

-------------- Linux WLAN Configuration Script -------------

The default responses are correct for most users.

Build Prism2.x PCMCIA Card Services (_cs) driver? (y/n) [y]: n
Build Prism2 PLX9052 based PCI (_plx) adapter driver? (y/n) [n]: n
Build Prism2.5 native PCI (_pci) driver? (y/n) [n]: n
Build Prism2.5 USB (_usb) driver? (y/n) [n]: y

Linux source directory [/lib/modules/2.6.8-powerpc/build]:
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8Linux source tree /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8 is incomplete or missing!
    The kernel header files are present, but not  the full source code.
    See the HOWTO for a list of FTP sites for current kernel sources.

Configuration failed

I have installed a lot of kernel packages:

jsmanrique@Dagobah:~/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre23$ ls /usr/src/ -l
total 34100
drwxr-xr-x   5 root root     4096 2004-11-05 09:38 kernel-build-2.6.8-powerpc
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root     4096 2004-11-05 09:38 kernel-headers-2.6.8
drwxr-xr-x  18 root root     4096 2004-10-03 09:34 kernel-source-2.6.8
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 34864927 2004-10-03 09:35
kernel-source-2.6.8.tar.bz2
I hope someone could tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks and best regards,
