Re: [linux-usb-devel] 2.6.x support for prism2 USB wireless adapter?
From: Robert Gadsdon
Date: Mon Feb 23 2004 - 19:13:04 EST
I applied the patch to vanilla 2.6.3, and now get the following output:
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 4
# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 066b:2212 Linksys, Inc. WUSB11v2.5 802.11b Adapter
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
I unplugged/plugged-in the adapter several times with no problems..
Prism2_usb module loads (apparently) OK (and I agree that any problems
with _this_ are not for the kernel.org lists..)
Thanks..

I had my Linksys prism2 USB wireless adapter (WUSB11 v2.5) working
reasonably well with kernel 2.4.23, but with kernel 2.6.3 (and udev 018)
I get:
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 5
drivers/usb/core/config.c: invalid interface number (1/1)
usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -22
snip
The problem is that the prism2's single interface is number 1, but
according to the USB standard interfaces are supposed to be
numbered starting at 0. This is a fairly common error among USB devices.
The patch below will cause the kernel to accept the device; please let us
know how it works out.
