are you running 2.4? This file is about a year old and doesn't compile
under 2.6.12 (structures are different). This file that comes with 2.6.12
sis from Jun 2005 bu is from pcmcia-3.1.22, while the current is 
pcmcia-3.2.8.

It's not clear how to build modules outside the kernel in 2.6.

Do you have any clue what to do here?

Marcel Gagne (sp?) in Linux J this month mentions that orinico won't scan 
in Linux but will in Windows as the info to do so is not freely available.
