Problem with USB Wirless card


I have been working on setting up a Linksys Wireless Card. I have found a few places online that have been helpful, but I have gotten stuck finally. I have been following this site . I get as far compling the driver and the install, but it seems like it is never installed. I can never find the usbvnetr module. Where can I go from here?

First, Look on the bottom and tell us which version of the WUSB11 you have. There have been several diffrent versions made.

Still can't start the device. I downloaded the rpm and installed it with no errors. When I plug in the device, I get: usb.c: USB device ... (vend/prod 0x77b/0x2219) is not claimed by any active driver.

It says to grep for 0x77b/0x2219 in the source files. Where can I find these files?

Uninstall the rpm (rpm -e packagename). Then visit this thread and follow the directions that I wrote there. (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=125391). Make sure you download the source package, it's very easy to compile.
