Well support has not responded, and I got impatient - so I got busy. For anyone else out there that is in a similar boat to me, here's what u can try (I am kicking myself that I didnt try this earlier)...
1) Unpack the source for rt2400.o. It can be downloaded from
www.minitar.com
2) Edit the makefile
3) Locate the "CFLAGS :=" section and change the value of
-march=
to suit your architecture (my wireless router is a Pentium 233MMX - or i586)
example - this is what the minitar folks supplied:
CFLAGS := -D__KERNEL__ -I$(LINUX_SRC)/include -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include $(LINUX_SRC)/include/linux/modversions.h $(WFLAGS)
and I changed it to:
CFLAGS := -D__KERNEL__ -I$(LINUX_SRC)/include -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i586 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include $(LINUX_SRC)/include/linux/modversions.h $(WFLAGS)
4) Follow their instructions for compiling and with a bit of luck u could be working! (Well it worked for me anyway)
That goanna, dingo and drop bear is happy now I won't have sacrifice them to the gods of support
