[zd1211-devs] Help with zd1211 firmware

2007-04-19 Thread Javier Gracia Castro
Hi everybody,

I am working with and embedded system (AT91RM9200-EK) and I want to  
add a zd1211 Wi-Fi USB device. I want to avoid loading the driver as a  
module and then I have built all options regarding to IEEE 802.11,  
zd1211 driver, and firmware loading in the kernel itself.

However, when I plug the device I obtain:

[root@(none) /]# usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 2
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using at91_ohci and address 3
usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usb 1-1: Could not load firmware file zd1211/zd1211b_ub. Error number -2
zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: couldn't load firmware. Error number -2
usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using at91_ohci and address 3
zd1211rw: probe of 1-1:1.0 failed with error -2
usb 1-1: device_add(1-1:1.0) -- -2

Then I downloaded the zd1211 firmware from sourceforge and I have  
updated my filesystem with these files in /lib/firmware/zd1211/

But unfortunately, I obtain the same error. Do you know how can I  
solve this problem? Is there any possibility to point the kernel to  
these files for including them in the compiled kernel image?

Thank you for your attention,

Javier

 Well, they were fairly random, i.e. sometimes it worked well, and
 sometimes look 10 seconds - and then after a few minutes was okay.
 
 You'll be pleased to know that with the latest wireless-dev snapshot
 (and latest linus) everything is going much better. I can't tell you
 what fixed it, but it now just works.
 
 Thanks.

This sounds good. However notice that wireless performance differs
a lot depending on the actual interference. In my home it varies a
lot, probably caused by WLANs of my neighbours.

I have implemented a change for the mac80211-based driver,
which should remove one source for higher latency. However I still
can observe latencies between 300 and 400 ms once in a while.
