Hey Andy,
I to am stuck trying to get my wireless working as well. It looks like I am one step ahead of you. I am also trying to compile the same driver. This is where I have gotten so far:
******************************************************************************** [root@localhost hybrid_wl]# make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.7.1.el5/build M=`pwd` make: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-128.7.1.el5-x86_64' CC [M] /home/ferrell/Downloads/hybrid_wl/src/wl/sys/wl_linux.o In file included from /home/ferrell/Downloads/hybrid_wl/src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c:33: /home/ferrell/Downloads/hybrid_wl/src/include/typedefs.h:83: error: conflicting types for ‘bool’ include/linux/types.h:36: error: previous declaration of ‘bool’ was here make[1]: *** [/home/ferrell/Downloads/hybrid_wl/src/wl/sys/wl_linux.o] Error 1 make: *** [_module_/home/ferrell/Downloads/hybrid_wl] Error 2 make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-128.7.1.el5-x86_64' [root@localhost hybrid_wl]#

From what I can see you need to check the kernel entry in your command
line. Also have you upgraded to the newer kernel? I did something similar. I somehow got a mix of new kernel headers and source, but the older kernel was still running. I also have a broken symbolic link in for the /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.7.1.el5/build file.
Once I got passed that issue, I ran into another. I had to install gcc.
I used the command: yum install gcc* and installed the packages.
Now I am getting the above error message: error: "conflicting types for ‘bool’" & "previous declaration of ‘bool’ was here"
So once again I am stuck. If anyone out there has any ideas -- I'm all ears.
Thanks, Ferrell
