Issue with acx111 (wireless card) driver

I have the feeling my problem might be very elementary. I am new to Arch and new to command-line in general.

Following the directions on this page:

http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/ACX

Everything works fine till, in step "Outside the kernel tree," I execute:

# make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`

I get the following:

   CC [M] /usr/src/acx-20070101/common.o
/usr/src/acx-20070101/common.c: In function acx_l_rxmonitor:
/usr/src/acx-20070101/common.c:2757: error: struct sk_buff has no member
named mac
make[1]: *** [/usr/src/acx-20070101/common.o] Error 1
make: *** [_module_/usr/src/acx-20070101] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.6.22-ARCH1'

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks very much.

Re: Issue with acx111 (wireless card) driver

The 20070101 release from acx needs to be patched for kernel 2.6.22.

There are Arch packages for this driver in the unstable repo. If you really want to build it yourself, you can get the patch from the acx100 wiki, or from our CVS.
