Re: Question about USB adapter from Orinoco-USB: msg#00007

Subject: Re: Question about USB adapter from Orinoco-USB
Hello!

Please avoid cross-posting, especially to 4 (four!) mailing lists at
once.  If you did your research before posting you would have found that
linux-wlan-ng is totally unrelated to the topic.  I can imagine that
some people don't want to answer you because they would have to
cross-post too.  So let's limit this discussion to orinoco-devel.

Yes, it worked for me with 5V cards.  Don't try 3.3V cards.  Also, cards
with Symbol firmware didn't work, and I don't know why.

prism_usb is a stub.  It has no hardware specific code at all.  If it's
ever completed, it would work like prism2_usb from linux-wlan-ng.  I
wanted to use it as a testbed for USB support because Prism chipset on
USB is better documented and there is no intermediate layer like ezusb.
