Never mind. I guess I'm not familiar with getting the latest zd1211rw for 2.6.21 I see the date Alian posted on was after Sebastian's note on 5/5. And now with Daniels tests and recommending a AL2230S device, I assume it's working now. I'm using Suse 10.2 and was using their kernel source for 2.6.21 at: http://software.opensuse.org/download/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_10.2/ Even though it's dated May 19th, it has the AL2230S check still in (per my last message). Can some kind soul please explain what I need to do to get the latest/stable zd1211rw code into a 2.6.21 kernel?
