A couple beers and a good nights sleep did me well, I have figured it out.

Apt-get reported my linux-headers to be installed correctly, but Synaptic said otherwise. I installed them, then needed to modify the driver Makefile to point to '/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-5-686' rather than '/lib/modules/$(KVER)/build'.

After a restart, phew, I have wifi.

Thank you for the support, each day I learn a little more.

You'll probably see me lurking around the irc channel soon now that I have stable internet.

@tranche: I gave that a try and certainly it is throwing up a slightly different error, though I am at a loss as what to make of it.

make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build'
make: *** [modules] Error 2

@snowpine: I've tried doing that as instructed in the original thread, it is reporting that I already have the newest version.

Thanks for the fast replies!

Hey all, I'm having the exact problem as stated in this thread: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic … with-make/

I would have responded there but it looks like it's been locked.

I've tried all that's mentioned in that thread, with the same results as the OP. Mine is not a Thinkpad though and I am installing a different wireless usb device (Belkin F7D1101).

Output is as follows:

make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-686/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** [modules] Error 2

I have minimal experience with linux. Any help would be appreciated.
