GP2X Rt73sta Wireless Usb Driver

[gmiller1018]

I have compiled and built the driver code with the 2.95.3 version of the tool kit.

What a pain .. all multi-line macro's with ' \' to make then look pretty had to have the '\' removed and the macro made one line. I also had to fix unamed union access to force an instance because of the way the code was structured.

Unfortunalty the version check code of insmod is still messing with me so when I load it the version checking is preventing it from loading. I tried the -f swtich with insmod but it still wines at me. I am not sure if the version checking code is an entry point or what so I will investigate. I have read the articles on this error being caused by using the wrong set of tools but that is why I got the 2.95.3 set ....

If anyone has any suggestions for different approaches. Or possible CFLAGS settings which could also be a problem since the original one as x86 centric so I stole the once from the kernel.

BTW: I looked at the open source version but it only works with the newer version of the 2.6 kernel so there is no joy there ...

Ok .... fixing include directive to force module version checking on (autoconf.h that was missing, "the copy had it off") so the module tries to load but some symbols are undefined. Checking on why the usb_??? symbols are missing ... could be more issues with missing version.h and autoconf.h that were is a previous svn copy.

Ok ... insmod usbcore before driver ....

 

[GnoStiC]

you get this when you don't enable usb host mode on your gp2x and/or with wrong kernel header files..

Yes ... do "insmod usbcore;insmod rt73" and no problems.

 

[cheap-plastic]

Yes ... do "insmod usbcore;insmod rt73" and no problems.

Could you upload your compiled drivers somewhere? I would like to try them out

The code compiles, loads and starts but I have been unable to test it much because of time contraints. I hesitate putting it in the archve because it is untested. If you want it just message me and I will send you a URL for the whole thing. My test environment is screwed up right now and my job coding is pretty heavy so I have not been able to get back to it.

 

[sephiroth111]

so what device does this driver support?

does it function?
Does it require the BOB for MK1 GP2x units? (opposed to a usb adapter)
How hard would it be to configure?
