Re: [zd1211-devs] AR5007UG WLAN USB card, not working by now?!

2007-05-17 Thread Björn Tappert
Hi Daniel!

I finally got this card working with the driver you mentioned (vendor).. works 
not very well, but I can find wlans. I used the patch on the page and was able 
to compile it.

Thanks a lot!
Anyway, if your code is ready please inform me.


Best regards,
Björn

Björn,

could you provide us with the output of cat /proc/version, we need  
the kernel version.

It appears that the kernel version is to old. The RF is supported in  
newer kernels.

Kind regards,

Ulrich

 Hi!

 I am using a laptop with an build in AR5007UG wireless lan card:

 lsusb says:
 Bus 1 Device 2: ID 0ace:1215 ZyDAS

 I used zd1211b first:
 I got my device to be found (iwconfig), but it didn't work  
 correctly (bit rate
 was at 1, I could not find wlans...). I finally gave it up.

 I tried the zd1211rw than:
 with modprobe zd1211rw I got (dmesg):
 ...
 zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: RF UW2453_RF 0x9 is not supported
 ...

 And on your page (http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/RfTypes) I saw that  
 your are
 working on that chip.


 So is there a change to get it run by now? When not how long do you  
 think it
 will take? Did anybody get it working with special settings or so?


 Thanks in advise!
 Björn

 It almost got it working on this way, I saw it on iwconfig. But as I said I

If you saw something on iwconfig then it wasn't the zd1211rw device. 
zd1211rw will bail out before a netdevice is created, because it doesn't 
support UW2453. You're not close to getting this device working with 
zd1211rw, sorry.

Contrary to what Ulrich said in his last mail, UW2453 is currently *not* 
supported in any kernel releases. I have one of these devices but have 
been unable to get my zd1211rw RF code working reliably. I will resume 
my efforts in the next few days and will submit the code when ready.

I got it running on iwconfig with the zd1211b driver. I posted it here.

This code is known not to work very well, hence me not pushing it
