Module zd1211rw.ko
September 19, 2023 07:23PM
Hi, I am trying to add wifi to a pogoplug V4 with an old USB wifi. It seems it requires zd1211rw.ko module, but it is not avaialble.

Is there a "howto" to compile a module?

Thanks

Schnee

I forgot the add this Wifi module the last time somebody mentioned it! (this module is already in the kernel). I will do that for the next release.

If you cannot wait, search for dkms. Nowadays, people use dkms to build module. I did not include the kernel source in my release, but you can get the source tree from kernel.org.

Thanks. I already downloaded the kernel source from kernel.org and tried to compile just the driver, but failed. Will search for dkms to understand it and try again.
