ieee80211-source - Source for the 802.11 (wireless) network stack for Linux
This package provides the source code for the 802.11 (wireless) network
stack module for the Linux kernel. Though it has been incorporated in
latest kernel versions, the bundled one might not be up-to-date to build
third-party wireless modules such as ipw2100 or ipw2200 which are common
on Centrino notebooks.
In order to compile these modules you need the kernel sources (or the
kernel-headers for the kernel-image packages from Debian). For compile
instructions look into /usr/share/doc/ieee80211-source/README.Debian or
simply use the module-assistant utility.
The project's homepage can be found here:

ieee80211 for Debian
--------------------
How to compile the driver
-------------------------
Install prerequisite packages: build-essential, kernel-headers-$VERSION, where
$VERSION is the version of the kernel you want to build the driver for.
Change directory to /usr/src:
$ cd /usr/src
Unpack the tarball with the driver sources:
$ tar xzf ieee80211-source.tar.gz
Now you have two options:
1) Use module-assistant
Build and install the module package (as root) with
# module-assistant a-i ieee80211
If something goes wrong follow the given instructions.
2) Build the module manually
Change directory to the sources root:
$ cd modules/ieee80211
Build the module:
$ fakeroot debian/rules binary-modules \
KSRC=/usr/src/kernel-headers-$VERSION KVERS=$VERSION
where $VERSION must be replaced by the exact version string of the
kernel you want to build the module for (e.g. 2.6.5-1-686).
Install the module package (as root with dpkg -i) which can be found
now in /usr/src/modules.
