Bad luck. :( AR9280+AR7010 USB dongles are based on UB94, the Xbox adapter is not, it's based on a different reference design, so it is not surprising that ath9k_htc fails to bring up the card. Looks like a different firmware is required for the Xbox 360 adapter. I am not sure how different the fw is from htc_7010, so it is hard to say how much work has to be done to port the required changes to htc_7010.fw. I don't have the adapter with me, so any fw change has to be tested by you. :) Sujith -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
