  Could I suggest a minor update to the instructions at 
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download,  to avoid a bit of confusion?

For whatever reason, section "9. Selecting your driver" is listed 
_before_ the instructions to extract the compat-wireless tarball in 
"Section 10. Building and installing"

(Of course, selecting a specific driver can only be done _after_ 
extracting the tarball because ./scripts/driver-select is _in_ the tarball!)

No offense or anything, but the order there seems a bit strange.  It 
threw me off the first time, so perhaps it has others as well?

On the whole though, thanks for providing the great package!
