oh~~ sorry for poor English and happy Lantern Festival Day. Not sure what is happening in comment 6...do you have a directory for /lib/modules/3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64/build on your box? Is there anything in it? It should be provided by the kernel-devel-3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64 package. Perhaps you should remove the compat-wireless-2012-02-02 directory and re-extract a clean copy, then start over?
