Sorry for my O.S ignorance. I guess I have to download the source code (only 
for this module ?) from SuSE official web site. Assuming the source is C 
language I will use gcc and get a .o object file which has to be saved to some 
system directory (where ?). 
Will it be necessary to recreate the whole kernel ? 

Since my wireless worked perfectly until it was screwed up by the latest O.S. 
updates, I wonder how often this inconvenience can occur and if its cause is 
known to SuSE developers. I cannot believe I am the only SuSE user whose (old) 
laptop has a PRO/Wireless 2015ABG card ...

Thank you,
Maura
