In the latest sources from Linus.git there is this warning: |
13 |
|
14 |
#ifdef CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN |
15 |
/* |
16 |
* Unclear what kind of devices these are (they aren't supported by the |
17 |
* vendor driver). |
18 |
*/ |
19 |
/* Sitecom */ |

{ USB_DEVICE(0x0df6, 0x0040), USB_DEVICE_DATA(&rt2800usb_ops) }, |
21 |
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |

And there is your device, FWIW. Now, enabling CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN |
23 |
is beyond my abilities. Even though it's definitely present in the Kconfig |
24 |
file, I can't get it to show up in menuconfig. That option is new since |
25 |
2.6.31-gentoo-r10, so I'm guessing the existing driver doesn't support that |
26 |
particular device yet. |
27 |
|
28 |
I'd happily be wrong if someone knows otherwise. |
29 |
|
30 |
BTW, the driver code that's rejecting your device could be commented out |
31 |
in drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2800usb.c (lines 2339-2359). (If you choose |
32 |
to rebuild the driver that way -- don't blame me for any death/destruction |
33 |
or loss of data it may cause. The RF chip is the high-power part of the |
34 |
adapter, so driving that chip incorrectly could do it damage, maybe.) |
