Looks like you're using the wrong modules or it was a kernel hiccup.

But all I'm doing is grabbing the binary at http://david.gnedt.eu/blog/wl1251/ , and I've just extracted only the folder:
/wl1251-maemo/binary/compat-wireless/
to my n900, and have been trying the files there.
Is that so different from everyone else's approach? I wonder If I could've loaded something that enables a more strict checking of the modules?

Hi. After I installed wl1251 driver apt-get complains on unmet dependances.
apt-get install any_package_name
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kernel-power-settings:
Depends: kernel-power-flasher (>= 1:2.6.28-10power49)
but 2.6.28-maemo46-wl1 is to be installed
or
kernel-power-bootimg (>= 1:2.6.28-10power49) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
I'll be thankful for any advice.

I cant even imagine why that would be possible. I'd love to hear any theories.
injection support isn't worth wiping all my apps and configs for me

If you would like to see packet injection driver in kernel-power, see info about testing patched osso-wlan: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...6&postcount=68

Fixed it anyway, when I found that a seperate copy of the driver files "just worked"
The main part of the problem: Somehow I'd ended up with 0-byte .ko files, somewhere along the way of uncompressing the driver archive from the larger one, scp'ing it over, and uncompressing it on the phone ...

Hi,
lxp published new version of packet injection driver.
Source code is here: http://david.gnedt.eu/wl1251/wl1251-...-source.tar.gz
And builds for kernel-power v50 here: http://david.gnedt.eu/wl1251/wl1251-...9+pre50.tar.gz
Please note that old version is INCOMPATIBLE with kernel-power >= v50

Thanks for the announce pali.
I have some additional notes:
The new version is now able to load the calibration data, therefore it might give different results for the signal strength and range than the previous version. I hope it only gets better
The interface package/byte counters should now also work in injection mode.
The source is now separated and contains the full git repositories, so there should be no problem with building compat-wireless.

@everyone i followed the readme file. it is for kp46. i installed the debs accordingly. i was using kp49 and after that my device went into a reboot loop. how to install the drivers?
i flashed my N900 and with some help i managed to understand a bit. all i did was:
untarred the tar file.
cd /home/user/MyDocs/wl1251/binary/compat wireless
sh load.sh
THATS IT ?
