wireless card installation problems

Comment:
I am trying to install drivers for the "Cisco Aironet 350 wireless NIC" on redhat 8.0 and keep getting this error 'linux source tree /usr/src/linux is incomplete or missing, configuration failed'. This is after i unpacked pcmcia-cs-3.1.26.tar.gz into /usr/src. I then cd to pcmcia-cs-3.1.26 and run 'make config' and this is where i get the above error. By default 'make config' looks in /usr/src/linux for the kernel. There was no linux directory in /usr/src, all there is is a redhat folder and there doesnt seem to be anything of use in there!

Ok, I've fixed the above problem by downloading the kernel source "linux-2.4" and "linux-2.4.18-14". Now when I try to run the "Client ACU" it says "No radio found", so its not detecting the card!
Any ideas? Or is there a forum on the Cisco site, if there is I cant find it!
