I'm getting an error when compiling the ath9k driver in
compat-wireless-2010-04-11. The version 2010-04-04 compiles fine after
fixing a simple

First I do:

./scripts/driver-select ath9k

The I run "make", and after some time I get the following:

I want to try the newest driver because I have a lot of dropout problems
when using my "Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter
(PCI-Express) (rev 01)"

gcc (Debian 4.4.3-7) 4.4.3

What kernel version are you on?


Hi Luis!

tmac@asus ~$ uname -a
Linux asus 2.6.32-3-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 24 18:07:42 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

It is from the Debian package linux-image-2.6.32-3-amd64, with Debian version number 2.6.32-9. At the same time I have the corresponding kernel header packages installed:

linux-headers-2.6.32-3-common (Debian version 2.6.32-9)
linux-headers-2.6.32-3-amd64 (Debian version 2.6.32-9)
