    I'm running SUSE 10.2, and I want to install my wireless USB dongle. But I can't get ndiswrapper installed. It doesn't work at the part MAKE INSTALL. I was running in root-mode. The konsole says the following:
    linux-mwnj:/home/roy/ndiswrapper-1.37 # make install
    make -C driver install
    make[1]: Entering directory `/home/roy/ndiswrapper-1.37/driver'
    Can't find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/build;
    give the path to kernel build directory with
    KBUILD=<path> argument to make
    make[1]: *** [prereq_check] Error 1
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/roy/ndiswrapper-1.37/driver'
    make: *** [install] Error 2
    .
    Any ideas how to solve this? I did everything described in the wiki of ndiswrapper.

    Isn't there a precompiled binary for Suse? Why can't you just install it from your package manager?

    Don't you need an internet connection for that? (I'm trying to set up my internet connection device with ndiswrapper). Or does ndiswrapper from the package manager link to the installation DVD of SUSE?
