Hi

I purchased an SMC 2662W USB wireless adapter. It appears to work under Windows just fine. However under Linux is another story! I love Linux and this eludes me. Before I purchased the device I looked at the SMC web site and there is a driver for Linux. However when I install the SMC driver and do a "depmod -a" it states something like:

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/usb/vnetusba-2.4.18.o

I have no clue how to fix this and I have not get any reply back from SMC technical support.... At this rate I don't expect to... I'd love to!

Anyhow when I plug in the USB adapter and run dmesg I get:

hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 1
usb.c: USB device 1 (vend/prod 0xd5c/0xa001) is not claimed by any active driver.

This is all well and good. It gives me the vendor and product codes for detection. Now I just need to find a driver....

I went to http://www.wireless.org.au/~jhecker/atmeldrv/usbtable.html and it shows two different product codes 0xa002/0Xa001 on line 35 for the SMC 2662W. I build the whole driver set from there with no luck - even with entering the vendor and product codes. I must be missing something!

Anyone have the knowledge to help me out? Anyone know what GPL driver set I should use? Surely I'm not the only one having this problem??
