I downloaded the Wireless Tools 26 from wireless tools . Anyway its a .tar.gz and i decompressed that, but now I have a bunch of .h and .c files along with some other stuff and the readme says to try a make install, how would i do that? :confused: Man this Linux is confusing :?: real interesting though, btw im on Mandrake 9.1

Yeah, read some documentation about it, but the simple order of commands that usually works for the majority of programs:
all done from within the root directory of the program
eg:
[code:1:e73e78de9a]
tar zxvf filename.tgz
cd filename
./configure
make
make install
[/code:1:e73e78de9a]
Hope thats of some help to you.At the request of wiggo ;)
