[Trisquel-users] 64 bit wireless drivers htc_9721

[brigham]

I have a wireless card with the chipset AR9721 which uses the htc_9721 and  
htc_9010 drivers which in a 32 bit system can simply be cp'ed over to  
/lib/firmware/ and reboot and the wireless will work fine from there. But the  
problem is, is that my IBM ThinkPad R60 is 64 bit compatible, so this means  
that I have to compile the drivers from source if I am not mistaken, and the  
instructions that come with the source code from github require me to be  
connected to the internet during the compilation of these drivers, which  
means that I would have to be connected to eth0 which I do not currently have  
access to an ethernet connection, so I have no means to build this driver.  
Does anyone else have any help that they could offer? Anyone else having  
similar problems with wireless drivers?
