![]() ![]() Once I saw the article at Hackaday that covers exactly how to replace the OS, I knew I had to do it for myself. I did a lot of research in regards to the capabilities of the Dockstar, including being able to push a customized Linux OS on the device. Not sure what to do.Ok, so not long after I published the article on the hardware teardown of the Seagate Dockstar, I couldn’t help myself so I started working on things to do with this device. The module loads perfectly, the stick connects to the WLAN and associates, but I can't access any IP on my network. Well, the I installed the last wireless-compat drivers from October 1st. Insmod: error inserting 'rt3070sta.ko': -1 Invalid module format Nevertheless, after compiling, the module didn't load. On my DockStar, Debian Squeeze is installed, the device didn't work out of the box, so I downloaded the Ralink driver from the company's homepage. usb 1-1.4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice usb 1-1.4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 usb 1-1.4: New USB device found, idVendor=148f, idProduct=3070 usb 1-1.4: new high speed USB device using orion-ehci and address 4 ![]() Hi, I bought a LogiLink "Wireless N USB2.0 Adapter" which has got the USB # 148f:3070. If not someone has a good idea today, I will return it tomorrow to the dealer. ![]() Puh, finally I brought it to work, but it is useless. To my surprise the green LED of WN721N is always on, on the WN321G the red LED comes on only if some traffic is there. On the serial link (/dev/ttyS0) I see with "iwconfig" just "Bit Rate= 1 Mb/s", and I cannot connect with PUTTY. The router (Fritz.box) tells me a speed of 48 Mbit/s with 55% quality. OK, I added it to /etc/network/interfaces and changed in file /etc/wicd/nf "wlan0" to "wlan1". To my surprise the system gave it the name "wlan1". Now I have first seen a green light from the WN721N stick (compared to red from WN321G). Correct is:Ĭlick at ath9k_htc from on snapshot, the file will be generated and downloaded.Įxtract ar9271.fw (51.280 bytes) and put it in /lib/firmware, that worked. I am sorry, I gave you a link to a wrong firmware ar9271.fw. It has not finished yet, I cross fingers. Ncurses is installed, so I tried with "make config" and "make modules", what is still running. When I started "make menuconfig" I got the message that ncurses is not installed. Ncurses is installed, so I tried with "make config" and "make modules", what is still running.Īs soon as I have something stable, I will write a wiki page. Third try now is native compiling on Debian-dockstar, with the source package of gorgone. I have seen in the source code, that "ath_print()" is defined in "ath/debug.c", but do not know why it is not linked. User.warn kernel: ath9k_hw: Unknown symbol ath_print (err 0) Gorgone was so nice to compile the ath drivers for me for the 2.6.35.4 kernel, but I got an error at The compiling works good (2.5 h), but the modules were not loadable (wrong format). I setup an Arch Linux from with native compiling. lib/modules/2.6.35.4-dockstar/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath.ko andīecause I failed with cross-compiling Linux-dockstar on Ubuntu 10.04 (objcopy failure), ![]()
