I am trying to get a 3Com 3CR10075 USB wireless adapter to work under Fedora 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.
I used a standard install and have had no success in getting this adapter to work. I have downloaded the zd1211rw firmware from zd1211.ath.cx and put this in /lib/firmware then used tar xvjf. Since this created a directory called zd1211-firmware I made a sybolic link to zd1211 in case this helped. There is no .fw file - only the following files: README zd1211b_uph zd1211b_uphr zd1211_ub zd1211_uphm zd1211_ur zd1211b_ub zd1211b_uphm zd1211b_ur zd1211_uph zd1211_uphr I'm not sure if there should have been a makefile somewhere but I haven't seen any sign of this. I used the gui network configuration tool to check the adapter. It is listed as eth1 but when I try to enable it I get the following message: "Device 3Comusb0 does not seem to be present. Delaying installation." When I use modprobe zd1211rw to try to load the adapter, I get the following message: WARNING: Error inserting ieee80211_crypt (/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/updates/net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt.ko): Invalid module format WARNING: Error inserting ieee80211 (/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/updates/net/ieee80211/ieee80211.ko): Invalid module format WARNING: Error inserting ieee80211softmac (/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/kernel/net/ieee80211/softmac/ieee80211softmac.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) FATAL: Error inserting zd1211rw (/lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/zd1211rw/zd1211rw.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) I have used yum to install ieee80211 but get a screenful of reported errors in dmesg.
