Hello, First off, thanks for the work put into this driver. I'm sure it wasn't a walk in the park.
As per the Subject line I'm trying to get a USB Wifi device working on the Sharp Zaurus (a Linux sub-sub-laptop). I started a thread on the OESF forum, if you want to read it first: http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=25125 Someone who has the kernel source and a compile environment was kind enough to compile the driver for me. I'm running a 2.6.16 kernel with the pdaXrom R198 distro. Because it no 2.6.18 or better he had to compile the one that was not supported. :( I've installed the kernel module and according to dmesg it looks like it loads OK: usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice _____ ____ _ ____ |__ / _| _ \ / \ / ___| / / | | | | | |/ _ \ \___ \ / /| |_| | |_| / ___ \ ___) | /____\__, |____/_/ \_\____/ |___/ ZD1211B - version 2.22.0.0-development vendor_id = 0ace product_id = 1215 USB 1.1 Host Release Ver = 4810 EEPORM Ver = 4810 Finsih download Firmware.
