IPW2200 doesn't work - make from sources problems

Quite newbie question:
I'm trying to get IPW2200 to work. I'm using
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/ as a guide. I downloaded
ipw2200-1.1.1.tgz
ipw2200-fw-3.0.tgz
ieee80211-1.1.12.tgz
and tried to follow the instructions.... Everything seemed to bo ok,
but I think at some point (when installing ieee80211-1.1.12.tgz) I was
asked to remove all previous versions from /lib/modules. I think I
didn't do it correctly, because now I have this:
[root@waslt142 ieee80211-1.1.12]# make
Checking in /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 for ieee80211
components...make -C /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build
M=/root/ieee80211-1.1.12 MODVERDIR= /root/ieee80211-1.1.12 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i686'
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i686'
so - there's no sign of error, although it's going slightly too fast...
but then I go to next step which is installing ipw2200-1.1.1.tgz, and I
get this:
[root@waslt142 ipw2200-1.1.1]# make
ERROR: ieee80211.h not found in
'/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/include'.
You need to install the ieee80211 subsystem from
http://ieee80211.sf.net
and point this build to the location where you installed those
sources, eg.:
% make IEEE80211_INC=/usr/src/ieee80211/
will look for ieee80211.h in /usr/src/ieee80211/net/
make: *** [check_inc] Error 1
so I do this command:
make IEEE80211_INC=/path_to_source_of_ieee
but it doesn't help.
My question is; what can I do to make my system as it doesn't contain
any results of making
ipw2200-1.1.1.tgz and ieee80211-1.1.12.tgz? I don't want to reinstall
once again... :(
thx,
lunak
