Hello, I`m tired to compiling

Nothing work oder I'm to stupid for DSL.

No I have try to compile the Zydas Driver with DSL 3.4.11, but I become Error.

I`m use the kernelsource.dsl from mydsl.

But nothing ok.

Everyone use the Zdydas ZD1211 with Damn Small Linux 3.4.11 oder DSL 4.2.x?

How did you get support for zd1211?

I have compiled this module & have been meaning to submit it to the repository. I also have the correct version of wpa_supplicant compiled for it. I will submit them sometime over the weekend (or upload them & post the location here). I have them compiled for DSL v3.x. I'll have to look at compiling the module for 4.x. I'm assuming there won't be a need to recompile wpa_supplicant for the move from 3.x to 4.x?

The problem you reported in a different thread about this hardware causing a system freeze with ndiswrapper is also something I experienced. This was the reason I went to the trouble of compiling the module that came with my hardware. I must admit compiling wasn't completely straightforward as there were some additional libraries required (may have been for compiling wpa_supplicant) which were not present with just kernelsources & GCC extensions loaded.

OK,

I've found the source files I used to compile the ZYDAS modules and relevant wpa_supplicant for v3.x as well as the binaries. They are stored at:

http://users.tpg.com.au/cramond/zydas/

The instructions that came with the files are also there.

When the module loads you should get an ascii ZYDAS graphic appear on the console.

Hello andrewb, wich Firmware do you have testet?

My USB Wlan Stick needed the Firmware Package from Debian Sid.

With the other Firmware my Stick don't work.

http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/zd1211-firmware/download

zd1211-firmware_2.16.0.0-0.1_all.deb

How Do you have installed the Firmware?

andrewb

Code Sample

. I have them compiled for DSL v3.x.

Can you post, what you have done?

How can I get the Info which Firmware my Stick needed?
zd1211-firmware_2.16.0.0-0.1_all.deb have 10 Firmwareversion.

zd1211-firmware from Etch non-free habe 5 Firmewareversion, with zd1211-firmware Etch non-free don`t work my Stick.

Do you have to consider to use the 2.6.x Kernel in DSL 3.4.11 oder 4.2.5 from DSL-N?
