Subject: [rt2x00-users] problem with rt2800usb module on Linksys NSLU2
running Debian
Message-ID: <[email protected]>

Hi all
Firstly, I hope this the right list to post to. According to the
Debian wiki, the rt2800usb module is provided by this project. Modinfo
also suggests that this is the right place.
I have a problem with the rt2800usb module on my Linksys NSLU2
which has been reflashed to run Debian 6 (squeeze). The NSLU2 is a
small ARM architecture machine. I am using the default module and
firmware provided by Debian for this architecture.
The USB device I have is made by Addon and is apparently an RT3072
adapter. On insertion of the adapter, the rt2800usb module (version
2.3.0) loads (dmesg details below) but is followed by the error
messages:
phy0 -> rt2800usb_init_eeprom: Error - Invalid RT chipset detected.
phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to allocate device.
and no wifi interface is created.
I have confirmed that the device works by plugging it into my x86
architecture desktop running Debian 6 and to a netbook also running
Debian 6. The problem only occurs on my NSLU2.
