DLink DWL-G122
Hardware That Doesn't Work with Linux
Comments
The card does not work * in hardware revisions prior to B2* If you want to use a dwl, make sure it is one of the latest revisions featuring a ralink chipset supported via the rt2x00 driver
what about rt2570.ko?
rev A2 works fine w/ ndiswrapper!
Rev B1 (RT2570) has worked without problems for long periods with the Ralink-supplied rt2500-1.1.0-b1 driver compiled on FC3 and FC5. The RaConfig2500 X config program handles it without any problems. With ndiswrapper there were periodic hard freezes.
Rev C1 (RT2573) requires a firmware file (rt73.bin) and either the Ralink-supplied rt73 driver or the rt2x00 driver. rt73.bin is included in the Ralink RT73_Linux_STA_Drv source tarball. The rt2x00 driver is still beta, so some functions may not yet work. http://web.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
