The binaries are in the files I uploaded - make sure you check in the file '...for kernel 2.4.26.tar.gz'. I use the zd1211b module (using to post this message!). make sure you have all other wireless lan modules (e.g. ndiswrapper, wlan_tkip, ath_hal, etc) unloaded then load zd1211b & insert the dongle.
then do:
ifconfig eth0 up
iwlist scan
iwconfig eth0 essid <YOURESSID>
pump -ieth0
This will get you connected on a system with no WEP or WPA.
If you want to use WPA used the version of wpa_supplicant I uploaded (in the ...bin.... file). To get it to work with the zydas dongle you need the switch '-Dzydas'.
If you are still having problems it may be that you have a different zydas chip. Have a look at the output of the command 'lsusb' My zydas dongle is listed as '0ace:1215'.
I run mine through a pcmcia USB 2.0 card & find i can't run a usb mouse through the same card at the same time as the zydas dongle. The system runs really slow & 'ps' reports many many instances of the usb hotplug scripts running.
Good luck
