Hello! What is the difference between rtl8192su and rtl8192u? I see that both drivers have almost equivalent device tables. rtl8192su supports two additional devices compared to rtl8192u, but all other devices are claimed by both drivers. Are rtl8192su and rtl8192u supposed to support the same hardware? This message suggests otherwise: http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/pipermail/devel/2009-November/002879.html The reason I'm asking is that I have bought a wireless device from hiroinc.com, which is identified by lsusb as 0bda:8171. That ID is not in rtl8192su or rtl8192u device tables. If I add the ID, rtl8192su works, rtl8192u doesn't: [ 7993.856921] rtl819xU:EEPROM ID is invalid(is 0x0(should be 0x8129) [ 7993.856923] [ 7993.856928] Dot11d_Init() [ 7993.856931] End of initendpoints [ 7993.857195] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl819xU [ 7993.910258] udev: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlan30 [ 8012.663825] rtl819xU:====>error=====dwRegRead: 0, WriteData: fffff027 [ 8012.663827] [ 8012.663830] rtl819xU:PHY_RF8256_Config():Check PHY0 Fail!!

Before I submit the patch for the new ID, I would like to know whether rtl8192u is supposed to support the same devices as rtl8192su. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
