---+ Download Wi-Fi Linux/Android driver

For downloading of HDG200 driver, please read <a href="BuildHDG200" title="Download HDG200">here</a>.

The driver is split into a binary part and a source part. The binary part is a kernel-version and kernel-configuration independent kernel-space library which also holds the device firmware. The source part is basically the implementation of the adaptation layers interfacing the SDIO stack, the TCP/IP stack and the wireless extensions. This code is dependent on kernel version and configuration, so it must be compiled for a particular kernel.

Currently, the included library has been compiled for ARM architectures only. In version 1.0.6 and later, the library has been compiled with the CodeSourcery GNU EABI toolchain 2011.03-42. The toolchain can be downloaded here: https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release1802

The library and source files comes with a Makefile to create a linux kernel module, owl.ko.

The driver also support Android extensions.
