Ohk finally the WiFi driver for IOGEAR module that ships with the TS7250 board
works for the new Kernel (with improved timing resolution for 2.4.26-ts11).
The following are the steps I followed to compile the driver.
Compiling the Wireless driver for the patched kernel.
Get the source for zd1211-driver-r83 from the ftp ts7250 website.
ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7250-linux/sources/
Apply patch to the makefile
http://xania.org/media/zd1211-arm.patch
"patch -p1 < zd1211-arm.patch"
(Refer Article here for more details on the patch:
http://xania.org/200607/wireless-booting-and-flash-ram-fun)
Modify the makefile of WIFI driver for the path of KERNEL and the include
files. Execute this on the command prompt in the directory of driver source.
"make both"
This generates the binaries for both the drivers: zd1211b.o and zd1211.o
Copy the zd1211b.o driver to the board and run the following script to load the
USB and WiFI drivers.
insmod usbcore
insmod pcipool
insmod usb-ohci
insmod usb-ohci-ep93xx
insmod scsi_mod
insmod sd_mod
insmod usb-storage;
#Driver for wifi
insmod /root/FREEDM/drivers/zd1211b.o
sleep 2
#associating with AP
iwconfig wlan0 essid ncsu
sleep 2
#necessary for dhcp
insmod af_packet
sleep 2
Hope it helps someone....
Mohit.
