error structure has no member named 'wireless_data'

[Romeo Theriault]

Hello,

I'm trying to compile hostap-driver-0.4.9 on a CentOS 4.4 machine. I
installed  the kernel-devel package so I could build the module.

The KERNEL_PATH ?= /lib/modules/$(KVERS)/build seems to be correct and when
I type 'make' it seems as though the compile seems to starts but here is the
output.

 # make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.EL/build

\

make: *** [2.6] Error 2


And then it dies on this. I tried an older version of hostap 0.3.9 and I get
the same errors.

Is there something that I can do to get this to compile.

Thank you for any help.
