Drivers compile steps

Compat Wireless 05/10/12

1. unzip file compat_wireless.zip
2. from linux terminal window cd to compat-wireless-2012-05-10 folder
3. type "./scripts/driver-select ath" in terminal and hit Enter
4. type  "make KLIB=/path/to/utu-Linux2.6.24-folder KLIB_BUILD=/path/to/utu-Linux2.6.24-folder" replace path/to/utu-Linux2.6.24 with real path
5. when compile is finished you will see something similar with this in linux terminal:
 
 MODPOST 10 modules
 LD [M]  /compat-wireless-2012-05-10/compat/compat.ko
 LD [M]  /compat-wireless-2012-05-10/compat/compat_firmware_class.ko

 LD [M]  /compat-wireless-2012-05-10/net/rfkill/rfkill_backport.ko
 LD [M]  /compat-wireless-2012-05-10/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko
 make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/utu-Linux-2.6.24'
 cornel@ubuntu:~/Downloads/compat-wireless-2012-05-10$ 

 follow the path's from linux terminal and copy all 10 .ko modules in idrive Filesystem folder  lib/modules 

6. edit the rcS file from Filesystem folder etc/init.d/rcS  add at the end of file in this exact order :

   insmod compat.ko
   insmod compat_firmware_class.ko
   insmod rfkill_backport.ko
   insmod cfg80211.ko
   insmod ath.ko
   insmod ath9k_hw.ko
   insmod ath9k_common.ko
   insmod mac80211.ko
   insmod ath9k_htc.ko
   insmod ath9k.ko
   echo "Start DriveEye"
   /DriveEye/DriveEye
  
   if the order of insmod .ko's is not exactly like above the idrive camera will fail to initialize this drivers at startup
