Hi fellow developers, I have just started to look into Linux and would like to get my hands dirty with the ATH5k development.
As of now, I have installed Ubuntu LTS 10.04 and some software packages I believe would be necessary for development (i.e. Build-essentials, linux-libc-dev and linux-source-2.6.32). The next step I suppose is to download the ATH5k source and start to look into the codes. But I have several questions in mind and would appreciate if some of you can shed me some light and point me to the right direction. I understand that this version is Ubuntu already comes with ATH5k installed by default. My understanding is that I have to first disable it and then download the ATH5K source off the internet and work on the downloaded copy instead. In that case, may I know how can I unload the default ATH5K from Ubuntu? I tried using the blacklist method as suggested by some folks in a forum but I am wondering if that will effectively blacklist my home-brewed ATH5K as a result subsequently. Lastly, may I know if theres any online guide on how do I get started with ATH5K development for a new developer who has little Linux experience? I'm a relatively quick learner, so if theres an online guide somewhere, I should be able to follow it through and hopefully get up to speed quickly. Thanks for reading and I appreciate all the help I can get. Cheers! :) Best, Simon _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
