ZD1211LnxDrv_2_22_0_0 Asus WL-159g

[lukegeorge]

Hello,
I have a ASUS A4g laptop with a ASUS WL-159g wi-fi card. I've tried the zd1211rw (Linux 2.6.28) but this driver didn't work very well for my adapter. So I decided to try the ZD1211LnxDrv_2_22_0_0. I've downloaded and compiled the driver from http://zd1211.wiki.sourceforge.net/VendorDriver.
The compilation works and after that:

# modprobe zd1211

and the kernel seems to recognize the card, but I noticed that the dmesg shows this output many, many times:

More over, the # iwconfig command shows:

dummy0    no wireless extensions.

eth1      no wireless extensions.

Additional Info

Does anyone know what's the problem?

Thanks
Best regards,
