Er zit een README bij, die al geprobeerd?:
En misschien moet je eerst de kernel-sources nog installeeren als je die nog niet heb:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers build-essential gccInstallation instructions for the Legacy rt61 module
[http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com]
==================
Build Instructions
==================
1. Unpack the driver sources and go to the Module directory:
$ tar -xvzf rt61-x.x.x.tar.gz
$ cd ./rt61-x.x.x/Module
2. Compile the driver sources:
$ make
3. Install the driver (as root):
# make install
4. Check your install:
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwlist wlan0 scan
=============
Configuration
=============
The wlan interface should be configured using the standard wireless
tools (see iwpriv_usage.txt for full details). If you're looking for a
GUI config tool we provide RutilT on our Download page.
Example: WEP
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwconfig wlan0 key
# iwconfig wlan0 essid
Example: WPA-PSK/TKIP
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
# iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=
# iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=TKIP
# iwconfig wlan0 essid
Note: Out-of-the-box, legacy drivers are _not_ compatible with
wpa_supplicant (see below).
==================
Misc. informations
==================
* Firmware files
rt61 chipsets use a firmware file which is loaded in device memory
using the kernel firmware_class facility. The standard location for
fimrwares is /lib/firmware ('make install' will put it there for you).
However some linux distributions divert from the standard and e.g. use
/lib/firmware/. If this is your case, you will have to
manually move the firmware file to the right location.
If you have problems with firmware loading, please ask on your distro's
support media (forum, etc).
The firmware files mapping is as follows:
- rt2561.bin RT2561
- rt2561s.bin RT2561turbo
- rt2661.bin RT2661
* Driver alias
rt61 uses wlan* as its modprobe alias. This means you can have several
devices and they will be named wlan0, wlan1, etc.
If for some reason you want this interface number 'static' (e.g. if you
have several wlan devices and their numbers change on reboot) you can
change the rt61 alias in /etc/modprobe.conf back to wlan0 (or wlan1...).
However the proper way to achieve this purpose is to use a udev rule
based on the wlan MAC address, like the following:
KERNEL=="wlan*", SYSFS{address}=="00:de:ad:be:ef:00", NAME="wlan0"
(More info: http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html)
* Module parameters
You can load the rt61 module with two optional parameters:
- ifname= Customize interface names. For example, set
it to ra%d to return to old-style naming.
- debug= Turn debug on (least verbose mask: 1). The
driver needs to be compiled with
'make debug' for this option to work.
* Auto-load on boot
If you want your rt61 device to come up on boot the best is to rely
on your specific linux distribution boot scripts.
If you need support doing so, ask on your distro's support media.
* wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant is a userland WPA/WPA2/802.1X layer. Most of these
features are embedded into legacy drivers and you should not need it.
If you need to use a feature that only wpa_supplicant provides:
- either use our next-generation rt2x00 driver which is compatible with
wpa_supplicant
- or patch wpa_supplicant to make it work with rt61 (more information:
http://mjh.name/Ralink_rt73_wpa_supplicant_rt2x00_wpa2)
* hostapd
hostapd allows your wlan device to act like an Access Point. Legacy
drivers are _not_ compatible with it, but our next-generation rt2x00
drivers are.
* Testing / debugging
If you experience any rt61 related problem you can ask for support on
our mailing list or our rt61 forum.
Before asking for help, read the TESTING file and follow its advices.
Do *not* post messages like: "wlan does not work. please help!".
