Hello, I'm trying to get a Belkin F5D7050 USB wireless adapter to work with the OMAP5912 starter kit. I enabled the zd1211rw driver in the kernel (2.6.32-rc2-05967-gd350540), and it appears to recognize the device when I connect it. It shows up as wlan0 when I do iwconfig. The problem I'm having is that it doesn't seem to be able to find the firmware. I downloaded the firmware files from Sourceforge and unpacked them in /lib/firmware/zd1211. But when I try to bring the interface up with ifconfig, I get the following: / # ifconfig wlan0 up usb 1-1.2: firmware: requesting zd1211/zd1211b_ub usb 1-1.2: Could not load firmware file zd1211/zd1211b_ub. Error number -2 zd1211rw 1-1.2:1.0: couldn't load firmware. Error number -2 SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory This is the output from dmesg: zd1211rw 1-1.2:1.0: zd_usb_init_hw() usb 1-1.2: request_fw_file() fw name zd1211/zd1211b_ub usb 1-1.2: firmware: requesting zd1211/zd1211b_ub usb 1-1.2: Could not load firmware file zd1211/zd1211b_ub. Error number -2 zd1211rw 1-1.2:1.0: couldn't load firmware. Error number -2 I tried copying the zd1211 firmware folder to a couple of other directories, like /etc/firmware/ and /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/, but that didn't seem to help. I also tried loading the firmware manually, with the following commands: echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/loading cat /lib/firmware/zd1211/zd1211b_ub > /sys/class/firmware/data echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/loading But after the first line, I get the following: /bin/sh: cannot create /sys/class/firmware/loading: Directory nonexistent Is there some other directory that I should be putting the firmware files in? Or have I missed some crucial step along the way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
