[patch] fix up fedora 7

[richard kennedy]

Hi all,

The code does not build correctly on fedora 7 as the wireless extensions
are not enabled. This is because the stock fedora 7 kernel does not have
CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS defined.
This patch changes p80211netdev.c to enable the wext if either
CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS or WIRELESS_EXT is defined.

Also the udev rule does not trigger, so here's a new rule that does
work.

Both of these work for me and it all works under the control of
NetworkManager.

Cheers
Richard

It's applied, thanks!

Good, good.

I suppose it's time to make wext the default mode of operation now..
