The best advice for you is to just throw out whatever screwy wireless 
hardware you have that apparently requires you to compile and install some 
cockamamie drivers.  Chalk it off as a learning experience.  Go back to 
Google, and find a wireless card that's been natively supported by the 
modern Linux kernel for at least a year now, buy it, plug it in, and have 
everything Just Work™.

There are plenty of wireless cards out there with native Linux support.
