I have TPLINK tl-wn727n wireless adapter. I have bought s3c2440 mini2440 arm9 board. Adapter chipset is rt3070. I have compiled it for mini2440 but its not running on the board. Can anybody give me instruction how to compile and run it on the board? Thanks
How did you compile, where you get source, how you include module. Some info is needed to help.
I got the driver from ralink site http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2 rt3070. I compiled by chinging two files os/linux/config.mk by setting wpa_supplicant=y and MakeFile setting LINUX_SOURCE=linux-2.6,32.2. and then i run the command make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMILE='arm-none-linux-gnueabi-' CFLAGS='-march=armv4t -mcpu=arm920t' it created rt3070sta.ko file. I picked this file and pasted this file to mini2440 machine in directory /lib/modules/2.6.32.2-FriendlyARM/drivers/net/wireless/. After that i tried to run command insmod lib/modules/2.6.32.2-FriendlyARM/drivers/net/wireless/rt3070sta.ko. But nothing happens. Any ideas?? Thanks
OK did you check dmesg output? Or insmod finished correctly or it stuck with some error?
yes.. I checked it using insmod ... it gives error Invalid module format. I am stuck at this stage. I dont know what to do either to write my own wireless driver for this chipset or go with opensource? Everyone is saying that wn727n is not in working stage. Kindly help me how to proceed? I want to run wn727n on mini2440
OK which version of kernel you have on board and for which version did you compile driver? This could be the problem. Anyway you can contact me offline marek.belisko at gmail.com
