Hello James,

there seems to be a problem with newer c compilers.
I found it very easy to solve. Just edit hfa384x.c at the mentioned lines.
You will see that there are string constants split into several lines, like:
"hello, this
is one string"
You just have to put them on one line (with your favorite editor, in vi use
the J command):
"hello, this is one string"

Good luck,

Carl

Hello,

I'm currently experiencing a problem when trying to install the wlan drivers

and i'm not sure where I have gone wrong... perhaps i've left something out.

The error message i'm getting is as follows:

   hfa384x.c:781:49: missing terminating " character
   hfa384x.c:783:66: missing terminating " character
   make[3]: *** [.depend.usb] Error 1
   make[3]: Leaving directory
   `/tmp/prism2/linux-wlan-ng-0.1.14/src/prism2/driver'
   make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
   make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/prism2/linux-wlan-ng-0.1.14/src/prism2'
   make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/prism2/linux-wlan-ng-0.1.14/src'
   make: *** [all] Error 2

Is anyone able to give some insite into this?


Thanks,
James
