[ALUG] Compile errors

[Barry Samuels]

I'm still fiddling with this new Asus P5W DH mainboard of mine. I've  
given up with trying to get the IDE DVD drive working and the people  
that sold me my current DVD drive last November, and the P5W mainboard,  
have offered to swap that drive for a SATA version so I shall try that.

However - on to the reason for this post.

I'd like to try and get the on-board Realtek 8187 wireless working so I  
downloaded the latest drivers from the Realtek site only to have the  
compile fail. So before I make a fool of myself by emailing Realtek  
could there be any other reason for the failure apart from faulty code?

This is what I get:

ieee80211_softmac.c:2168:78: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3
arguments, but takes just 2
ieee80211_softmac.c: In function 'ieee80211_softmac_init':
ieee80211_softmac.c:2168: error: 'INIT_WORK' undeclared (first use in
this function)
ieee80211_softmac.c:2168: error: (Each undeclared identifier is
reported only once
ieee80211_softmac.c:2168: error: for each function it appears in.)
ieee80211_softmac.c:2169:88: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3

ieee80211_softmac.c:2170:94: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3

ieee80211_softmac.c:2171:96: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3

ieee80211_softmac.c:2172:82: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3
arguments, but takes just 2
ieee80211_softmac.c:2173:82: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3
arguments, but takes just 2

I'm using gcc-4.1. The only 'c' I understand has tides. :-))
