Hi,
I have some problem to get a Sitecom USB WLAN stick to run.
Ben tried to help me but we did not get it to work. So he pointed me to you. :)
It is the Sitecom WLA-2000 v1.001.
Vendor 0df6
Product 005d
Chipset Realtek RTL8191S
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.016012] usb 2-3: new high speed USB device number 9 using ehci_hcd
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.151122] usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=0df6, idProduct=005d
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.151126] usb 2-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.151129] usb 2-3: Product: RTL8191S WLAN Adapter
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.151130] usb 2-3: Manufacturer: Manufacturer Realtek
Dec 10 18:45:10 roland kernel: [18513.151132] usb 2-3: SerialNumber: 00e04c000001
We tried to use the kernel module rtl8192cu by adding the IDs with "echo 0df6 005d > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rtl8192cu/new_id".
But this led to a kernel oops.
Is there any way to setup the rtl8192cu kernel module so that it accepts the WLAN stick?
We also tried the module r8192u_usb but it complains about firmware loading problems when connecting the stick.
Thanks in advance for your help. Please let me know if you need more information.

If rtl8192cu generates an oops when you use the new_id, then it is the wrong
driver for your device.
The driver for the RTL8188SU is r8712u. Try
modprobe -rv r8712u
echo 0df6 005d > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/r8712u/new_id
If that works, I can add that device ID to the driver.

Isn't this really just because using new_id results in
driver_info = NULL?

Teamwork is essential - it allows you to blame someone else.

I'm not sure, but I think new_id worked in the past for this driver.
Let's see if r8712u works. On Sunday night, I'll send the USB ID to the Realtek
people in Taiwan. From experience, I know I won't get a response on the weekend.

wow, this works. Thank you very much for your fast help. :)
This mail is sent via the WLAN stick. ;-)

This would be cool.
Thanks again.

OK, your chip is an RTL8191SU.

Patch sent to staging tree via GregKH with notation to add to stable.
Eventually, this change will part of an updated kernel - in your case, 3.1.6.
How long that takes will depend on how long it takes Debian to pick up these
changes.
Thanks for testing,
Larry
