Hello, I have edit the makefile

Quote
KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux



---->

KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux-2.4.31


The module compiling now is successful.

But, the Wlan-Configuration is not successful.

Here are the Message History:

Code Sample

ifconfig eth0 up
root@box:/home/dsl# iwconfig etho
etho      No such device

root@box:/home/dsl# iwlist scan

eth0      Failed to read scan data : Argument list too long

root@box:/home/dsl# ifconfig eth0 down

Hello, I`m happy.

I have wlan-Support with a Zydas zd1211

Code Sample
root@box:/home/dsl# iwlist scan
lo        Interface doesn't support scanning : Operation not supported

eth0      Failed to read scan data : Argument list too long

root@box:/home/dsl# ifconfig eth0 up
root@box:/home/dsl# iwlist scan
lo        Interface doesn't support scanning : Operation not supported

eth0      Failed to read scan data : Argument list too long

root@box:/home/dsl# ifconfig eth0 down
root@box:/home/dsl# ifconfig eth0 up  
root@box:/home/dsl# iwlist scan
lo        Interface doesn't support scanning : Operation not supported

eth0      Failed to read scan data : Argument list too long

root@box:/home/dsl# iwconfig eth0 up
Error : unrecognised wireless request "up"
root@box:/home/dsl# iwconfig eth0  
eth0      802.11b/g NIC  ESSID:"wlan1"  
        Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.437GHz  Access Point: 00:15:0C:9E:C1:A3

root@box:/home/dsl# iwconfig eth0 essid wlan1 mode managed
root@box:/home/dsl# pump -i eth0
root@box:/home/dsl#


Yesterday I have downloaded with my Second-PC in the same wlan area. Than "pump -i eth0" will not work.



:D  :)

Thank you andrewb and the other.

Edit:

I`m using the follow Extensions from DSL



The Kekernelsource-2.4.31.dsl is from Testing.

Code Sample

n Mydsl Extension, in Testing, there is a kernelsource-2.4.31.dsl
This is the info file:
---------------------------
Title:          kernelsource-2.4.31.dsl
Description:    Kernelsource for DSL 4.x  
Version:        1
Author:         Peter Misch - http://www.skripta.de/
Original-site:  ftp://ftp.oss.cc.gatech.edu/pub/linux/distributions/damnsmall/current/kernel/
Copying-policy: Whatever license my program uses (GPL, BSD, MIT, etc)
-------------------==[ color=red Filesize=2,1 MB ]==------------------------------
Extension by:   pmisch - Peter Misch
Comments:       This kernelsource is needed if you want to compile
             kernelmodules for DSL 4.x - like wlan cards ....
             It is heavily stripped down to minimize memory usage.
Change-log:
Current: 2007/12/08 - First Version


The Driver Binary ist from here:

http://zd1211.wiki.sourceforge.net/VendorDriver

Driver version 2.22.0.0

I have modified the makefile:


The Original Makefile from Package:

http://nopaste.info/2267adaee0.html

Line 23     KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux-2.4  

-----I have--changed--to------>

 KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux-2.4.31

Than you can compile the module.
