Hi Bill,

The ubuntu 2.6.15 kernel is heavy patched. It is more advanced and a lot closer to 2.6.16/17. I didn't patch any ieee80211. It comes with the ubuntu kernel. But I can compile it successfully with make-kpkg. Moreover, I have lost the the original ubuntu source so that I can trace it.

The latest ubuntu kernel I am using have no such problem. I will upload the latest kernel to my contrib directory on alpha shortly, so that can test it.

then installed it (dpkg -i), and unpacked the resulting *.bz2 file. After playing with the configuration, I got some compilation errors which
eventually I traced down to a bad line in the file
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.15-voyage/net/Makefile.
Line 48 is:
   obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE80211_1_1_17)  += ieee80211_1_1_13/
but should be
   obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE80211_1_1_13)  += ieee80211_1_1_13/
                              ^^^
  It looks as if the .deb file is at fault, and I double-checked that
downloading it again produces exactly the same result.  I thing that
this particular line is originating from one of the patches (the line
doesn't seem to be present at all in a "virgin" copy of
linux-2.6.15.6).

Bill
