Thank you for making this driver. I use it in my windows machine and it blows most of my other usb wireless adapters away. I cannot however get it to work on my linux install. I have patched it in but still cannot seem to get it to work. I have included the module info and the lsusb info below. Maybe I have missed something, can you have a look?
Thank you!!
