OMG, this is a stale thread, but still lets hope someone can answer

I tried following the steps but I can't seem to get the KOBO DHD under wireless.

Now apparently step 4. was incomplete as you still need to apply pantec's patch, so I added these commands
Code:
cd ..
patch -p1 <kobo_bcmdhd/patch.diff
But after that, nothing extra appears under
Device Drivers/Network device support/Wireless LAN

Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong ?

Steps I took:
Spoiler:

Code:
1.
wget https://github.com/kobolabs/Kobo-Reader/raw/master/hw/imx508/ntx/bcm-dhd-falcon-5901132-03112011.tgz
mkdir bcm-dhd-falcon-5901132-03112011
tar -xvf bcm-dhd-falcon-5901132-03112011.tgz -Cbcm-dhd-falcon-5901132-03112011

2a.
export KOBOLABS_SUPPLIED_DHD=bcm-dhd-falcon-5901132-03112011

2b.
tar -xvf linux-2.6.35.3.tar.gz
export KSRC=linux-2.6.35.3

3.
wget "https://www.mobileread.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=141151&d=1439843541" -O kobo_bcmdhd.tar.bz2
tar -xvf kobo_bcmdhd.tar.bz2 -C $KSRC/drivers/net/wireless

4.
cd $KSRC/drivers/net/wireless/kobo_bcmdhd
. relink-sources.cmds
cd ..
patch -p1 <kobo_bcmdhd/patch.diff 

5.
cd $KSRC
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-kobo-linux-gnueabihf- menuconfig
