I download the last kernel 2.6.36.2 from amr9.net 2011-04-13 I need to have the Atheros ATH9K modules, but I can't find-out!!! (ok) CONFIG_MAC80211 = m CONFIG_CFG80211 = m CONFIG_ATH_COMMON = m (not exists) CONFIG_ATH9K_HW=m CONFIG_ATH9K_COMMON=m CONFIG_ATH9K_HTC=m -------------------------------------------- --- Try make menuconfig, and try to find --- Device Drivers ---> [*] Network device support ---> [*] Wireless LAN ---> [*] Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11) ---> <M> Atheros Wireless Cards ---> I've only: --- Atheros Wireless Cards <M> Atheros AR9170 802.11n USB support
Wireless Driver ATH9K
I also found indications here, but not in the kernel... http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k Anyone?
Use compat-wireless (http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download#Old_kernel_support), but beware that maybe not all functionality will be available.
Hi Crapapal, I am using the 2010-07-28 kernel with the same problem, menuconfig doesn't show ATH9K flags. It seems that ath9k drivers are dependet from the PCI module. I tried to remove the PCI dependency from the Kconfig and forced to build them as a module, but it didn't work. Suggestions...?
I've done the same thing and the kernel compiles well. Then I use compat wireless to replace the modules. modprobe works now I'll test the usb wireless key.
Hi Crapapal, I can't run the wifi module yet, did you achieve it? Several questions could solve my doubts... I have used the 2011.04.13 kernel, but, did you remove the PCI dependency? Then, I have no idea which compat-wireless release I have to use, 2.6.32.16? Do I have to compile the compat-wireless inside mini2440 board? Thanks!
