I just compiled it and uploaded it to the files section with the file name 
zd1211b.o. Compiled for kernel 2.4.26-ts11 with gcc 3.3.6. It's untested by me 
but it should work. If it won't insmod then let me know.

I can't say I've played around with managed mode so I probably won't be much 
help there.

For future reference, here's everything I had to do to compile the driver:

1. Edit Makefile: at the top where it says HOST=, change it to 
HOST=arm-unknown-linux-gnu- or whatever your cross compiler's prefix is (make 
sure the cross compiler is in your PATH when you make).

2. Also in the Makefile: Comment out the KERN_VER= line and replace it with 
KERN_VER=2.4. If you don't do this and you compile on a linux 2.6 (or in my 
case, Mac OS X) system it won't work right

3. beneath the line that says KERN_24=y, change KERNEL_SOURCE to the path to 
the TS kernel source (the linux24 directory)

4. in the source directory type:
make ZD1211REV_B=1

All done...insmod it and use iwconfig from here.
