Debian: hjälp men installation av ralink wlan kort..
Behöver hjälp med att installera ett ralink 11g-RT2500 pci kort i debian 3.1
Hämtade hem drivrutinerna de har på sin hemsida för kortet (http://www.ralinktech.com/drivers/Linux/RT2500-Linux-STA-1.4....) och började läsa readme filen. Där finns följande text:

=======================================================================
ModelName:
===========
RT2500
=======================================================================
Supporting Kernel:
===================
linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 series.
Tested in Redhat 7.3 or later, Fedora Core 1, Suse 8.0,8.1,9.0, Mandrake 9.0->10.0, Slackware 9.0,9.1
=======================================================================
Description:
=============
This is a linux device driver for Ralink RT2500 b/g WLAN Card.
=======================================================================
Contents:
=============
./2.4.x : Makefile for kernel 2.4 series
./2.6.x : Makefile for kernel 2.6 series
*.c : c files
*.h : header files
Makefile.BigEndian : Makefile for big endian platform
=======================================================================
Features:
==========
This driver implements basic IEEE802.11. Infrastructure and adhoc mode with open or shared or WPA
authentication method. WEP-40 and WEP-104 TKIP and AES encryption,
=======================================================================
Build Instructions:
====================
For 2.4 series kernel:
a. $tar -xvzf RT2500-Linux-STA-x.x.x.x.tar.gz
go to "./RT2500-Linux-STA-x.x.x.x/Module" directory.
b. Use 'chmod 755' command to change access right of following script files :
'load', 'unload', 'Configure'
c. run 'cp ./2.4.x/Makefile .' and 'cp ./2.4.x/load .'
d. $make config # config build linux os version
e. $make all # compile driver source code
f. $load # load/insmod module(rt2500.o)
Note: Script functionality:
load load module to kernel
unload unload module from kernel
Configure retrieve linux version
For 2.6 series kernel:
a. run 'cd STA/Module'
'cp ./2.6.x/Makefile .'
'cp ./2.6.x/load .'
b. $make -C /path/to/source SUBDIRS=$PWD modules
Where /path/to/source is the path to the source directory for the (configured and built) target kernel.
c. run '/sbin/insmod rt2500.ko' (as root)
'/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up'
For big endian platform:
a. replace Makefile with Makefile.BigEndian
=======================================================================
To BUILD UTILITY
====================
a. go to the "./Utility" directory
b. run 'qmake -o Makefile raconfig2500.pro'
If qmake command is not found in your system, you can download the QT tool
'qt-x11-free-3.2.1' or later at
http://www.trolltech.com/
(qmake comes with RedHat 7.3 or later QT Package)
c. run 'make" to compile the utility source code.
d. After all, an execution file would be generated "RaConfig2500"
run "RaConfig2500" to config the driver as you want
Självklart trodde jag att detta skulle vara enkelt (nybörjare som man är ) och körde efter 2.4 kernel med build instuktionerna men eftersom det saknas en kernel soruce tree så fastnade man ju redan vid "make config" så vad ska jag göra? jag är som sagt nybörjare...
