I started by getting the ZyDas dongle to work on the board, but the power wasn't controllable. In any platform, in fact. So I moved on to the D-Link DWL-G122 (rev.C1). The tx power IS indeed possible to control in Ubuntu, but I can't make it to work on the Davinci. I followed the steps written by the people at: wiki.davincidsp http://wiki.davincidsp.com/index.php?title=Davinci_USB_WLan which state that they got the serialmonkey RT73 CVS driver to work in the exact same hardware as mine (Davinci ARM board & D-Link dongle mentioned above) but the firmware always fails to load. ...I thought the problem might be due to dodgy support of USB2.0 in Davinci. So I inserted a USB1.1 hub in series with the wifi dongle to make it work in 1.1 mode. Now I’m using a script - ‘loadfirmware’ - to ”feed” the driver with the firmware, depending how the dongle is attached (with hub / no hub): loadfirmware: #! /bin/sh sleep 2 DEV=`ls -d /sys/class/firmware/1*` echo Loading firmware into $DEV echo 1 > $DEV/loading cat /rt73.bin > $DEV/data echo 0 > $DEV/loading it does get me a bit further, I insert the module with “(insmod rt73.ko debug=2 &); ./loadfirmware”, and I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# (insmod rt73.ko debug=2 &); ./loadfirmware rt73: init rt73: idVendor = 0x7d1, idProduct = 0x3c03 Loading firmware into /sys/class/firmware/1-1.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] to load firmware! 78:/# [I believe the overwritten prompt is due to the scripted “sleep”] But then, when I try to do ‘ifconfig up’, I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ifconfig wlan0 up rt73: driver version - 1.0.3.6 CVS rt73: Firmware not load ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Input/output error (and 'ifconfig' lists in wlan0 "HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00") - What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance, David
