I am trying to get the wireless working on my Lenovo X61. I have an Intel wireless 4965AGN. I have a brand new SuSE 10.2 install (64 bit). As best I can tell, I need to recompile my kernel(which is currently stock SuSE) with the mac80211 patch in order to get it to work (per these instructions: http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi&n=HOWTO-iwlwifi). but I get compile errors (see the bottom of the included shell output). Google has proven unhelpful. Has anyone gotten this wireless card working on 10.2, or have any ideas how to go about fixing the compile errors? Thanks in advance for any help. -Jesse --------------------------BASH OUTPUT--------------------------------- hayden:~/mac80211-9.0.4 # uname -a Linux hayden 2.6.18.8-0.5-default #1 SMP Fri Jun 22 12:17:53 UTC 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux hayden:~ # cd mac80211-9.0.4/ hayden:~/mac80211-9.0.4 # make hayden:~/mac80211-9.0.4 # make patch_kernel Patching from compatible/ to /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-0.5-default/source/: + Replaced 63 files.

Done. NOTE: As of mac80211-2.0.0, kernel built-ins for the wireless extension handlers have been replaced with built-ins provided by mac80211. This requires you to rebuild your main kernel image and reboot to that kernel in order to use the mac80211 subsystem. We are looking for ways to correct this in the future.
