I have an AR6001 SDIO WIFI card with 2.0.1 firmware that I'm attempting to get work on an Acer Aspire One laptop running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10, 2.6.30-6 kernel.<br><br>I downloaded the latest version of the drivers from the andy-tracking branch, added the Atheros 6001 device descriptors into the SDIO stack. The modules were compiled and installed, and the machine rebooted.<br>
<br>The ar6000 module gets loaded when I insert the card<br><br>lsmod gives me this:<br>rob@GoGrapefruit:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31/drivers$ lsmod | grep ar6000<br>ar6000 113484 0 <br><br><br>dmesg shows this relevant information (Note that the laptop has two SD slots, and the wifi module is plugged into slot 0):<br>

looking in /sys/bus/sdio/drivers/sdio_ar6000, I can see that it's bound to slot 0 when the card is inserted, so I would assume that the driver is properly recognizing the card. Beyond that, the system does nothing. I understand that this is not a typical application for the openmoko ar6000 drivers, so I have a feeling that something else is missing. My understanding is that the ar6000 driver usually handles bringing up a new network interface for the card right? I'm getting no output indicating that the ar6000 driver is doing anything. <br>
<br>Does anybody have a thought<br>
