Comment 15 for bug 1239578

I was able to build and install the driver Xprogrammer found, but it does not work for me at all. It can get an address via DHCP but after that I can't even ping the default gateway.

There were several warnings produced during the build, lots of dmesg output, and a stack dump triggered in net/mac80211/rate.c:518 (a comment in rate.c indicates "RC is busted".

I can send along all of that if it's useful to anyone, but unless you have access to hardware documentation I doubt you'll be able to fix the driver. Based on the volume of the dmesg output, it appears to be an internal or alpha driver that escaped rather than something that's intended for production. I will contact the driver authors to see if they have a newer version (the version Xprogrammer found dates from October 22).
