wusb54gv2.patch
Have you tried applying a simple patch like this?
I haven't tried compiling the whole kernel but compat-wireless-2.6 won't build. Here's the error make gives. ./scripts/gen-compat-autoconf.sh config.mk > include/linux/compat_autoconf.h make -C /lib/modules/2.6.23.9-85.fc8/build M=/root/compat-wireless-2.6 modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.23.9-85.fc8-x86_64' CC [M] /root/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/misc/eeprom_93cx6.o In file included from <command line>:1: /root/compat-wireless-2.6/include/net/compat.h:20: error: redefinition of ‘struct ssb_device_id’ make[3]: *** [/root/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/misc/eeprom_93cx6.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [/root/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/misc] Error 2 make[1]: *** [_module_/root/compat-wireless-2.6] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.23.9-85.fc8-x86_64' make: *** [modules] Error 2 I don't maintain compat-wireless so I'm not in a good position to help you with that. Sometimes it lags a few days after new upstream changes. FWIW, that fc8 kernel should be sufficiently up-to-date to test just the patch from comment 1. Are you able to build Fedora kernels from the src rpm? adding an additional patch and rebuilding is not too difficult. It took me a while but I got it done and it works. FC8 doesn't seem to have the isl3887usb_bare firmware so I had to get that too. This patch is available in 2.6.25-rc3. |
