I just turned on all wireless drivers in my mpc5200 build and they all built ok. I'm using Linus' current git tree. rt2501 (WUSB54GC) is in the current kernel. AFAIK these should work. Some times there are minor problems with endianess but they aren't hard to fix. The usual error is loading the firmware byte swapped. > > Can anyone direct me to a good source outlining success stories with > wireless USB adaptors?
