Networking :: WMP54G v4 Drivers

Landon,
Install gnu-utils.dsl, then you can compile the Ralink driver(s) yourself ... but don't compile the "official" Ralink version, get the independent version from
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
Download the rt2500 source, stable or CVS, but don't download the rt2x00 source - this is for 2.6 kernels only.

The end-product will be a single module, /lib/modules/2.4.31/extra/rt2500.o which has no other dependencies, so you can copy it into /home/dsl and load it like this -
insmod /home/dsl/rt2500.o

There is another forum member currently asking for help with the WMP54G v4, so perhaps you can help each other.

I've mucked around with that, but I couldn't get it to work =\

Hey, what version of DSL will this work on? And I have an unrelated question...What does "broken pipe" mean? When I'm rebooting or shutting down, (i boot from jumpdrive), i see the line where the system is backing up to my drive, but it says something about broken pipe? thanks for ALL the help!

Hijack thread alert!
Broken Pipe is an invalid or more likely dual mounted device.
On a pendrive /cdrom is already mounted, you should not also mount /dev/sda.

Lol,,,

Any way, back to original post... What version will this driver for the wmp54g v4 work on? Should we use 1.5 or 2.0 for this?
thanks

I forgot to mention that you will need the kernel source as well.
For DSL 0.8.0 - 1.5 (kernel 2.4.26) -
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....rce.dsl

For DSL 2.0 up (kernel 2.4.31) -
