README
This distribution contains the firmware files for the
ZD1211 chip, which is used in WLAN USB sticks. Copy the zd1211_* files to
/lib/firmware/zd1211, where they can be loaded by the rewritten
zd1211 driver.
The files are generated from C header files distributed in the
original ZyDAS ZD1211 driver under the GNU Public License.
The full source of the original ZYDAS driver is available from
http://zd1211.wiki.sourceforge.net/VendorDriver
The GPL-licensed header files used to produce the firmware blobs are also
present in this distribution. See the COPYING file for the full license terms.
