I am trying to get a "safe home" brand USB zd1211b device to work with one of
our ARM based products. Basically the probe works and device registers fine.
Issuing iwconfig I see that device shows up as wlan0. I then issue the
command "ifconfig wlan0 up", the firmware gets loaded, things start to
initialize and then the driver gets removed...
I'm running a 2.6.25 kernel compiled for ARM using GCC 4.2.3 and have been
trying to get this working for a couple of days now. I looked at back
porting the driver from a newer kernel but there is a lot of stuff changed
in the wireless.h, mac80211 and softmac areas that I'm not current with and
will most likely cause issues with Wireless CF cards that do work. Also, I
did try the device on my Ubuntu 8.10 desktop (2.6.24-25-generic) and it
works fine. Although, it does use ieee80211softmac.
Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
James Ronald
