Im very new to linux so I shall explain what I have attempted to do. Im trying to install the drivers for a PCMCIA Wireless Card, Dlink DWL-G650+, Through searching the internet Ive found out that using NDISWrapper works. Here is my problem

Using the Make command after downloading and extracting the tarball of ndiswrapper I get the following error.

Quote

root@box:~/ndiswrapper-1.10# make
make -c driver
make[1]: Entering directory '/root/ndiswrapper-1.10/driver'
Can't find kernel sources in /lib/modules/2.4.31/build;
give the path to kernel sources with KSRC=<path> argument to make
make[1]: *** [prereq_check] Error 1

Ndiswrapper is included with DSL. Copy the windows drivers to a folder in your home directory, open DSLpanel, and select Ndiswrapper.
