Can somebody please send me the sweex driver for the usb wlan stick?
I have a Zyxel B-220 which uses the same chip.

Sorry for the kick, but I have a problem

I bought an Edimax 7117U today, which has the same chip as the Sweex thingie. So I downloaded the LC100020 v0.2 driver. I copied usb.c and hub.c to my newly extracted linux-2.4.24 folder (original kernel, no patches).

So then at 'make modules', things go wrong. I wrote down what I thought was the most important:

usb.c: in function usb_new_device2:
`A' is undeclared
syntax error before "usb_free_dev"

And the line number is 2394.

I tried kernel 2.4.22 first, but that one gave an error too.

What could be wrong?

And btw, is there any chance of getting this device to work in kernel 2.6?

Hi,

had the same problem... seems to be a typo - just use your favourite editor and remove the 'A'. It then compiles well, and the drivers are working.

I am also sorry for the kick...

I bought the Sweex LC100020 USB wireless adapter. I did download the linux lc100020 driver from http://linux-lc100020.sourceforge.net.

I installed the zdsta-driver according the instructions of the pdf-file. I used modprobe to start prism2_usb.
lsmod shows that prism2-usb is running, however unused.

When I run lsmod | grep prism, it shows:
prism2_usb 62948 0 (unused)
p80211 18404 0 (prism2_usb)
usbcore 58668 1 (prism2_usb usbserial usb-storage usb-uhci)

When i want to run wlanctl or ifconfig it says there is no such device.

Can anybody help me, 'cause i don't understand kernelpatches, modules and that kind of things.

I want to learn, but i don't know where to start.

I am using SuSE 9.0 with 2.4.21-99 (showing by uname -r).

This is some other output:

richard@]hotplug stop
richard@]hotplug start

No output at all

richard@]/etc/init.d/wlan start
Starting WLAN Devices:wlan0: error fetching interface information:
Device not found
Error: Device wlan0 does not seem to be present.
Make sure you've inserted the appropriate
modules or that your modules.conf file contains
the appropriate aliase(s).
dot11PrivacyOptionImplemented mibget failed.
error: Autojoin indicated failure!

richard@]ifup wlan0
ERROR: No configuration found for wlan0
