Re: ipw3945 compile problems with latest kernel 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6

This is not the config.h problem

I'm trying to compile the ipw3945-1.1.0 from intel and I get the
following "too few arguments to function 'ieee80211_tx_frame'" errors.
I thought that the latest kernels didn't need the ieee80211 patches?

Any ideas that are relevant?
