I think I did that a long long time ago, never got an answer. It used to be possible to just unzip the driver download and extract the firmware. At some point that changed and you could only extract it inside windows by running the install program (or by the other hack mentioned before in the thread). This change might have been unrelated to linux but it is, nevertheless, very unfriendly. I would not recommend buying that hardware when other hardware is available that does not require contortions to make it run. -- Fernando
