AFAIK OpenWRT uses compact-wireless, not the in-kernel modules. So you need to patch your driver there. Look at package/mac80211/patches. > How do folks normally do linux kernel module development under openwrt? I don't use OWRT build system for faster turnarounds, so I just source one env file which sets the corresponding crosscompile environment and then just use make in the kernel source dir directly (build_dir/linux*/linux*) and symlink there from tftp/nfsroot/whatever. -- ynezz _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
