You can take the latest compat-wireless, as suggested on the iw page: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Documentation/iw > I checked in the 2.6.25-rc9 tree and was surprised to find four copies > of nl80211.h: > 0 2008-04-14 23:48 ./include/config/nl80211.h > 10074 2008-04-11 16:32 ./include/linux/nl80211.h > 510 2008-04-11 16:32 ./net/wireless/nl80211.h > 10074 2008-04-15 05:50 ./usr/include/linux/nl80211.h > > It seems interesting that two copies have the same byte count and that > one of the files is empty. What's up with that? Only files in "include" are for external use. Files under "include/config" indicate kernel configuration. You don't need that. That leaves include/linux/nl80211.h Another approach. iw sources include linux/nl80211.h, and defconfig refers to "include". That gives the same answer. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
