<br>
information -<br>
I went through a similar learning curve last year. I wrote down
everything I found out in this doc on my wiki.<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.internetmachines.co.uk/mediawiki/index.php?title=Freedombox">http://wiki.internetmachines.co.uk/mediawiki/index.php?title=Freedombox</a><br>
The WIFI parts are scattered through the doc, such as "Dreamplug
WIFI", "Libertas firmware on old Globalscale OS" and "Marvell
modules for 8688". If you find gaping holes in the notes please tell
me and I will try to remember what I did.<br>
<br>
firmware -<br>
The bottom line is grab the firmware as Nick said and play with
modprobe and wireless tools. Linux work was being done -
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/libertas">http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/libertas</a> - and I had
some success with that, but it was incomplete at the time. There are
mailing list links on that page.<br>
<br>
bluetooth -<br>
The same chip does all the radio stuff (both Wifi and Bluetooth) but
I did not try the bluetooth. Kernel module was bt8xxx.ko, if that
helps.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="white-space: pre;">> or actually the firmware (fw)
for both the Wifi and Bluetooth. Both of them complain about not
loading fw during the boot. I know mine worked ok when I got it
from the Global people, but their site didn't seem to have it
either, unless I wanted to digress in OS's.<br>
><br>
> I've looked at the DP via 'lspci' and 'lsusb' and don't see
either device although the Bluetooth shows a vendor of 0x2df and a
device of 0x199a, can't find anything on them either.<br>
