Hi,

I am trying to configure wireless USB dongle

<snip debugging output>
According some post on internet this should be timing issue to initialize URB. But modifications from the post didn't resolved the problem.

1. Is there anybody who had similar problem and successfully resolved it?
2. What other wireless USB dongles are supported in Linux?
3. What wireless USB dongles are capable turbo mode 125mbps in Linux?
4. Is there a better place to ask for a help?

Note I tried same USB dongle at home in Mandrake 2006 and driver loaded without error message. I was able scan for WLANS with variable success (similar result was obtained in windows -- number networks on scans varies). So far no more tests was done at home (received USB dongle yesterday and had only about an hour to play with it).

Thank you for help,
Andy

I have used a edimax 7137g usb dongle with this driver and had similar problems using the source from the zydax site. Have you tried building the module using module-assisstant and the debian source. You also need the firware package but module-assisstant should take care of that I think.

aptitude install module-assisstant
m-a prepare
m-a a-i zd1211 (maybe -source, use m-a with no options for interactive mode and check)
modprobe zd1211
