Dear Sirs, Thank you very much on your mail. I am novice in linux and definitely not an expert.
The issue is as under: I have debian 6.0.a squeeze installed in my AMD processor computer. kernel is 2.6.32-5-686 32 bit version. RAM 2gb, HDD 500gb. [sata disk] OS installed in the partition /dev/sda7. the wireless hard ware I have is Netgear N-150. the command lsusb returns the hw as "Netgear N-150 < Atheros ar9271 > I have installed the firmware for ar9271 from the Internet. I down loaded latest 22-06-2011 compat driver. the command "make" does not compile the necessary module. When i explored /compat-wireless-yyy-mm-dd/compat folder, I found that the command "make" had generated number of doc"o" files based on the kernel from the dot"c" files. the said folder had dot"c" files for kernel ver compat-2.6.14.c onwards. how ever dot"o" files were getting generated from 2.6.33 and above only. hence i was not able to configure the wireless usb drive. I took the best option of using "ndiswrapper" and configured the wireless with "windows driver". Thanks once again for your kind response to my mail.
