There have been problems with this driver too. Some Later versions just

There is an easier method for this driver though - some repositories do
offer a binary version, for example search here:
http://pkgs.org/centos-6-rhel-6/nux-dextop-i386/kmod-wl-5_100_82_112-1.el6.el6.nux.i686.rpm.html
That will save you having to compile the driver yourself so it's also
worth a try.
I had it compiled already from testing it previously, I tried it first
(I'm getting myself confused, should I have compat-wireless-kmod
installed while testing this? It currently is installed).
No, these are two completely different drivers for the same hardware.
You will need to uninstall kmod-compat-wireless first before attempting
to install kmod-wl.
It's probably not a good idea to even build the wl driver on a system
with kmod-compat-wireless installed.
