debian hppa linksys wsusb12 anyone have success?

hi,

has anyone been successful with wlan-linux-ng and debian hppa preferably
with kernel 2.6.
I've been trying to compile it, but no success yet..

I'm trying to get a linksys USB12 wireless adapter to work with a HP
b2600(PARISC)

I was trying to install the linux-wlan-ng.deb file for a package that is no
longer
officially supported... I could be wrong, but it doesn't show
up when I do a apt-cache search linux-wlan-ng

I'm trying to install linux-wlan-ng. I have a prism2 based usb 802.11
adapter that I am trying to use.

Following someone else's instructions with a linux-wlan-ng for hppa
.deb file

put the deb file in my /tmp directory.

dpkg-scanpackages ./ /dev/null |gzip - > Packages.gz

Then edited the /etc/apt/sources.list file by adding
deb file:///tmp /

then
apt-get update
apt-get install linux-wlan-ng

This didn't work! I am stuck with this message
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-wlan-ng: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.5-1) but 2.3.2.ds1-22 is to be
installed

I've installed libc6 but it doesn't make any difference?

On another track I tried compiling linux-wlan-ng myself.
I've got someway but again come up against a wall.
My make config now works without any errors, but
then the make gives me this.

I'm stuck with these 2 lines

/bin/sh: line 1: scripts/genksyms/genksyms: No such file or directory

or specifically trying to figure what is calling the second line.
scripts/genksyms/genksyms is there, but not sure where
it's looking for scripts.

Been banging on this for a while and getting pretty
tired so if this stopped making sense, sorry, but
if you have any idea or tips.. that would be great.

If any other information would be useful, I'd be be more than happy to
provide


Thanks
