Hi all,
I've been doing a lot of searching the net, including this list, for a solution to my problem:
I've got Fedora 9 x86_64 running (nicely) with all current updates up to now, but I just cannot get my Fritz WLAN USB adaptor (drivers) installed. For one thing, since compiling the source code that I got from the AVM company web site does not work, I wanted to resort to installing the ndiswrapper package, but that is not found/available (from Fedora at least).
Does anybody know what I need to either be able to successfully compile the source code under x86_64, or to get this ndiswrapper package installed? Also, if I go with the ndiswrapper solution would I need to use the XP or Vista 64-bit drivers, or the regular 32-bit?
The device monitor recognizes it when plugged in and lsusb gives this:
# lsusb Bus 002 Device 003: ID 057c:62ff AVM GmbH WLAN USB v1.1 [no firmware] Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 045e:0734 Microsoft Corp. Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
and compiling the source code gives this:
