Thanks, David. Excellent point. Doh! According to the readme, the driver supports Linux kernel 2.4.x, and they specifically mention Red Hat and Suse as being examples of distributions that include 2.4.x kernels, but they don't specify that it only compiles on these distros.
I've attempted to compile it both on a Mandrake 9.2 system running 2.4.22 kernel, and a Debian 3.0 system with kernel 2.4.20. These are both running on a Dell Latitude notebook. Despite the 2 or 3 references I found online to people who have successfully compiled the code, I'm not sure how they did it, since the Configure script is clearly missing from the source that's available on the Agere website. It's worth noting that on the same Agere website is an updated Windows driver that also supports Hermes I and II chipsets, and said driver also contains integral to the driver a firmware upgrade for Hermes I cards that allows WPA support.
