[ydl-gen] yellowdog-general Digest, Vol 55, Issue 5

[kendall green]

Usually you have to recompile the kernel to get the drivers, either as
modules or in the kernel. That's what I did for zydas1211rw which is
also an Atheros wifi device.  Check for Linux modules for your
specific device and see what you need to do.


Jeff Yowell wote
"I successfully installed YDL 6.1, after hearing that the Atheros
drivers were included.  But scanning the wireless setup, I don't see
the drivers.  Can anyone help?"
