Hi Fadia

Not much information to go on ..

But haven't you maybe forgotten to run any configure script?
Often there is a script called 'configure' in the root directory when you unzip it.
Incase there is .. do a
#./configure

Good Luck

but this driver does not have a configuration file ,so just make and make install.

Shalom Fadia,

You probably need a driver for madwifi.

This is kernel specific.

Do a google search including your exact kernel version from uname -a
