Alright... long story short i have a linksys HomeRF. i found the driver for it , its actualy a proxim one, and im trying to install it.
the instructions tell me to use the command 'make dep' this does nothing but say:
make: *** No rule to make target `dep'. Stop.
anyway , i downloaded the kernel-source and tried it again same problem. any clues?

when i try make i get this: make <option> Options: config Configure environment for your distribution. modules Make the modules and the configuration executable. modules_install Install the modules and executables. clean Remove *.o and executables. real_clean As above but do library also. qrl Reload the interface. distribution Make a distribution tar ball. usage This screen.
i think i may be having trouble with the install itself, but it does say something about running "make dep"
