Hi, after having fixed few problems related to the path of some
include files just by writing the complete path (eg: p80211req.c had
just #include <net/sock.h> which wouldn't work), I end up to these
errors which I can't fix:

p80211req.c: In function `p80211indicate_shutdown':
p80211req.c:479: error: structure has no member named `socket'
p80211req.c:480: error: structure has no member named `socket'

Do you guys have a clue?
Thanks in advance.

You shouldn't rewrite the #include lines, rather, you should

a) make sure you have your kernel-headers package installed.

b) use -I to include other directories into the include path.

I had made sure before rewriting the #include lines. I have the most recent version.

In what way?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Well, I eventually surrendered: no way to compile it under kernel
2.6.2. Went back to 2.4.24 and everything worked fine.
Did anyone make it with the 2.6?
Take care

I have found that since 2.4.X where X > 18, the Orinoco driver from the
kernel works on my Prims-based Linksys card. So I don't use linux-wlan
anymore. FWIW.
