Ok, I don't really know much about what you're asking, but for one, I can tell you're probably not in development; make isn't distributed with programs, it's a program that should be on the system already. Just type 'make' and see if that gets you anywhere, and if not, you'll have to install the devel packages in order to get anything useful done.

I need a step by step to incorporate my Linksys USB wireless NIC, model WUSB11, driver into my Mandrake 8.1 system. &nbsp;You can download the driver from <a href="http://www.linksys.com" rel="ugc">www.linksys.com</a>&nbsp;under wireless devices. When I opened the compressed files, the instructions said the run make, but there was only a makefile, not make. &nbsp;I tried to execute makefile, but I lack some very basic knowledge of my Linux setup so I can't figure out what might be wrong with what I am doing.<br />
<br />
So assuming that I have a Mandrake 8.1 typical setup, give me step by step instructions to make the driver part of my system. I have a cat5 cable run from a 3Com NIC right now, but I have been ordered to get that cable off the floor, NOW! <br />
<br />
Start off with all the files in a directory on my Linux system, then step by step from there. <br />

Linksys Wireless USB driver for Linux, how can I install it?

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
