Hi A J,
I have tried to compiled the source and have the following results:
- It looks like the code was written on Ubuntu with Linux version v3.5.0-24
(Ubuntu 12.10).
- I tried Xubuntu 13.10 - (kernel v3.11.0-18-generic) - it does not compile -
as suggested by the author.
- Then I tried Ubuntu 12.10 - Desktop Live CD (kernel v3.5.0-17-generic) -
compiles okay (in VM), but my laptop will not boot this version of Ubuntu. So
I could not test with this version of Ubuntu.
- So I tried Ubuntu 12.10 - Server install - (kernel v3.5.0-17-generic). Used
the same modules compiled in the previous step. Not all modules are available
on the server install for the generic kernel, the missing modules was (I don't
know if this is important or not):
/lib/modules/3.5.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/misc/eeprom/eeprom.ko
However, once the other modules were loaded the Wifi light changed colour and
the installer could detect the Wifi card. However, the installer could not
detect the network, even when I manually entered it.
I suggest someone else try Ubuntu 12.10 (since it comes with the correct
kernel version). I will upload the compiled modules, so someone just
needs to run "load.sh" on Linux 3.5.0-17-generic to load the modules.
And they can test the Wifi driver.

This device is appearing in some OEM machines, but driver is not yet
available in mainline.
The driver seems to be present in machines with pre-installed OS, but
isn't available on the download-and-install versions!
