Well, it might depend on which Debian “distribution” you refer to. stable doesn't have a zd1211-source package and this situation won't change until the next release which won't happen before the end of this year. I don't know whether stable provides the zd1211 source under some other package name. testing and unstable both contain revision 67 currently but this might change during the next time. If you want to know the current state, you can have a look at http://packages.debian.org/zd1211-source. > I'd recomment to just try the newest drivers of zd1211.ath.cx. Okay. However, in principal it's better to have the driver nicely packaged for your favorite Linux distribution (i.e., Debian ;-) ).

No. ZD1211B is more a less another revision of the ZD1211 chipset which
supports 801.11b/g/a.
I just have tried what Chidananda suggested, meaning I accessed my
dongle with the zd1211 module. Can this damage the dongle?
Unlikely.
It should be supported by the driver using proper options ("make
ZD1211REV_B=1 install" should be okay).
Can I also do a normal make; make install and then just load zd1211b instead
of zd1211? Can I also use the zd1211-source and zd1211-firmware packages
included in Debian etch as long as I load zd1211b instead of zd1211?
Well, try it ;-). The latest zd1211.ath.cx driver revision is 71 though.
There have been reports stating the 2.6.0.0 ZyDAS driver (revision 71 is
based on) works better with zd1211b devices than previous versions. I
don't know what version the Debian driver is based on. The last time I
heard of it it was quite old. I'd recomment to just try the newest drivers
of zd1211.ath.cx.

Hmm, just recognized that zd1211b isn't installed by default. I thought it
would.

Oops. I thought that the b in zd1211b has something to do with 802.11b and
that therefore I don't have a zd1211b device since my dongle also supports
802.11g. I just have tried what Chidananda suggested, meaning I accessed my
dongle with the zd1211 module. Can this damage the dongle?

of zd1211? Can I also use the zd1211-source and zd1211-firmware packages
included in Debian etch as long as I load zd1211b instead of zd1211?
