Small wifi,Portable Wifi2, Xiaomi WiFi Raspberry Pi driver download

Step One: Install the Raspberry Pi cross-compilation environment

Environment used: ubuntu13.04
1. Download the cross-compilation tool

wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/RTI/Community/ports/toolchains/raspbian-toolchain-gcc-4.7.2-linux32.tar.gz

2. Unzip to the system directory

Tar-xvzf raspbian-toolchain-gcc-4.7.2-linux32.tar.gz-c/opt
3. Add the appropriate path to the environment variable

Vi/etc/profile
Add on last line


Export path= $PATH:/opt/raspbian-toolchain-gcc-4.7.2-linux32/bin




Step two: Compile the kernel

1. Viewing the current kernel version of the Raspberry Pi via Uname-r (3.10.19+)
Download the appropriate Raspberry Pi kernel https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/here

2. Unzip the kernel
Unzip Linux-rpi-3.10.y.zip
3. Compiling


CD LINUX-RPI-3.10.Y

Export ccprefix=arm-linux-gnueabihf-

zcat/home/share/config.gz > Config (config.gz from Raspberry Pi/proc/config.gz)

Make Arch=arm Cross_compile=${ccprefix} oldconfig

Make Arch=arm Cross_compile=${ccprefix}


Step three: Compile the small WiFi driver
1. Through the Baidu can know that the small degree of WiFi use is MT7601 chip
Go to MT official website to download the corresponding driver
http://www.mediatek.com/_cn/07_downloads/01_windows.php?sn=501
2. Unzip
3. Compiling
On the Raspberry Pi, LSUSB can see

Bus 001 Device 002:id 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001:id 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root Hub
Bus 001 Device 003:id 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004:id 2,955:1001

Baidu changed the hardware ID of the small-level WiFi
Modify Makefile

Ifeq ($ (PLATFORM), PC)
# Linux 2.6
#LINUX_SRC =/lib/modules/$ (Shell uname-r)/build
LINUX_SRC =/home/xxx/linux-rpi-3.10.y #内核所在目录
# Linux 2.4 Change to your local setting
#LINUX_SRC =/usr/src/linux-2.4
Linux_src_module =/lib/modules/$ (Shell uname-r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
Cross_compile =
endif

Add the Hardware ID in

VI COMMON/RTUSB_DEV_ID.C

Add to:

Make Arch=arm Cross_compile=${ccprefix}
Set this driver to boot
echo Mt7601usta >>/etc/modules (to have root privileges)

Now that the reboot is up, the wireless card has been identified.
