Uhm.....  adm8211-20041227.tar.bz2  on my fc2 and fc3 system without a
kernel-source(code) rpm installed  works just fine.  The make file in
the 20041222 has the correct
KDIR    := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD    := $(shell pwd)

running make inside /tmp/adm8211/   and i get a adm8211.ko created.
Seems to work just as one would expect.   and make install tries to
place the created module in
/lib/modules/2.6.9-1.11_FC2/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/adm8211.ko
on my fc2 system for example.

The 20041227 tarball has fixes for the 2.6.10 kernel and doesnt
compile correctly on the lastest fc2 or fc3 2.6.9 kernel.. but it has
nothing to do with the makefile.
