Hi, Daniel:
I'm sorry, I was really tired after an evening of trying to
configure the card...
OK, here is the detailed data: I bought a SMC ez-connect g
wireless USB. (SMCWUSB-G) USB id: 083a:4505. I downloaded the community
driver r83 plus the firmware v1.3 from the web site zd1211.ath.cx,
compiled it (the zd1211b version) and worked for kernel 2.6.17.
Now, I updated to Ubuntu Feisty, kernel 2.6.20. It is supposed
that the zd1211rw driver is included and supports both the a and b
chipsets. However, when I load the zd1211rw driver, nothing happens,
that is, the module loads, the usbcore says that it registered a new
interface driver for zd1211rw, but nothing more: no wlan0 interface and
no wireless interfaces detected. I tried the previous firmware (v1.3)
and the one that comes with the feisty restricted-modules for 2.6.20,
but no luck.
OK, however, the question is simple: anybody got a SMCWUSB-G (or
anything with the zd1211b chipset) working in kernel 2.6.20?
Thanks,
diego.

| Please provide some actual information. Which device, which USB IDs?
