I'm an embedded developer and I really want opensource development for wireless, to be sure to maintain it in many kernel versions I will have. I'm not an wifi expert and so I can have done some mistakes here below. wl0084a ============= grep -rin wl008 drivers give no result on kernel 3.2-rc6. What is the normal approach to take in account? I have to immediately change the usb wifi dongle due to the lacking of information to develop e proper driver or maybe there is some possibility? Here I can find Logilink drivers http://www.logilink.eu/content/support/download.htm?seticlanguage=en They confirm support for LINUX (kernel 2.6.18 ~ 2.6.33) Looking into drivers files ... yes , they are proprietary.
Some of the Logilink devices have Realtek chips. If this is a USB device, please post the output of 'lsusb'. If it is PCI, post the output of 'lspci -nnv' - we only need the part that describes the wireless device.
