Can't connect to Wireless

[Zenlakin]

My chipset is the Marvell Libertas 88w8335. For some reason I can even install ndis wrapper so that I can install the windows driver for the wireless adapter in my laptop. Also if there is a way to use a linux driver instead of using ndis wrapper I would prefer that. Thanks guys. Hope you can help!!!

Re: Can't connect to Wireless

I didn't post the entire error because it was longer than the max number of lines that was allowed.

Re: Can't connect to Wireless

Here we go. I didn't see the option to attach a file. I have attached the error in a text doc.

Re: Can't connect to Wireless

Do you have build-essential and linux-headers ?

Yep, he does. I'm his brother.

Re: Can't connect to Wireless

Hmm - maybe this helps:

First, locate the unlocated header files directories by using the find command, e.g.
cd /usr
find . -name "stdlib.h" -print
for each unlocated header file.

Next, edit the make file to be explicit about the full path name of the various directories for the unlocated header files in the gcc distribution and any from the ndiswrapper distribution that may be needed, if necessary, and then redo the make command.
