Thank you. In fact I successfully compiled this driver (latest 1126 version) with a 2.6.35 kernel from ubuntu 10.10 . It seems to work ok, except some freezing sometimes while booting with the stick installed on the PC. It also compiles with the same kernel on a 64 bits system, with a lot of errors, but does not work at all (freezes immediately). It is precised in the doc of the realtek linux driver that this is a 32 bits driver. Can you warn if the usb stick is in the samples sent from Realtek? If necessary, I can test your 64 bits converted driver on my system and give you the results in order to fix it. Eric PS: sorry for the reply-to-all forgetting. I realized that one minute after and resent my email to the ML also ;). 2010/11/11 Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: > On 11/11/2010 02:55 AM, miloofr@xxxxxxxxx wrote: >> The device as shown in lsusb is: >> 0x7392:0x7811 >> >> The vendor id seems to be different as those recognized by the r8712u >> driver.
