[ath9k-devel] AR9223 chipset

[Warren Li <warren.li@tp-link.com>]

Hi Luis?

Yes I tried it.

My problem is when I try to make the driver I got errors.
1. One of my desktop is using Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28. I installed my
wireless Adapter of AR9223 chipset, the Ubuntu can recognize it without
installing further driver.

2. Another desktop is using Debian 5 (Lenny), kernel 2.6.26, so I need to
download driver and install it, but I got errors when I make the driver
code.
I did the following steps:
Download the latest compat-wireless-2.6.
(log on root)
Apt-get install build-essential 
Apt-get install Linux-headers-$
./scripts/driver-select ath9k
Make (I can't make it, I got errors, always. In fact I have never been able
to install compat-wireless driver on my Ubuntu too, once I tried to install
ath9k_htc for my AR9271, but I can't do it.)
Errors:

This should work, with ath9k, have you tried it?
