Dwl-122 and Linux

Wickedinterface · 09-21-2003

OK my work does not support Linux, so i need to know if you Linux guru's know where i can get drivers for linux and my DWL-122. As Mr. Thorn stated the DWL-122 uses the prism chipset. The search comes up with nothing and google comes up with just what chipset it has. I'm Linux newbie here that knows a little bit about linux. So i need Uber help!!!

Most Linux variations have Prism support, so I don't think that will really be the problem. The real question may be whether the driver will talk to the chipset via the USB, and if so how to go about getting that to work.

Thorn is perfectly correct. Linux-USB.org is where you should start, their FAQ should have all the info you need.

Thank you gentlemen. I will do the research for this. Once I have mastered this I will see if the call center will support linux (highly doubtable).

Those won't work. The Dwl-122 is prismII based not TI based. But i do have my 650+ to work in linux. thanx for the help though.
