As I said before, if you need some driver which is not included, try to find the driver sources an ...

The driver for the 148f:2573 wifi dongle is lichee/linux-3.4/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt73usb.c.
The CONFIG_RT73USB may be set to 'm' in Device Drivers->Network device support->Wireless LAN->Ralink driver support->Ralink rt2501/rt73 (USB) support

Just installing it won't be enough if the kernel doesn't support it. I had atheros adapter and installed firmware-atheros.
The udev is triggered when the device is inserted

orangepi@radiopi:~$ udevadm monitor --environment --udev
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing

Have you tried the command
as mentioned in my post.

Hi Loboris,
yes i tried the command from your post, and it is perfectly working for routed AP, but I try to make a bridge betwean wlan0 and eth0 what is option "-m bridge"
i also installed "bridge-utils" and tried create a bridge:
root@Leela:~# brctl addbr br0
add bridge failed: Package not installed
root@Leela:~#
after some search it seems that CONFIG_BRIDGE is not set (kernel not compiled with bridge support)
At this poitn I am not sure, and I don't know how to try compiling kernel with bridge support.
Thanks for your support

I have also firmware-ralink installed, but i typed like Makenai : udevadm monitor --environment --udev

root@OrangePI:~# udevadm monitor --environment --udev
monitor will print the received events for:

Hi friends,
I download OrangePI-PC_Ubuntu_Vivid_Mate.img, flash and run on Orange Pi PC.
After boot:
sudo fs_resize
reboot
sudo install_x2goserver
reboot

All good, but I have not a sound on TV throw HDMI (picture is OK) and can't run x2goserver.
Error: No such file or directory

I am having trouble compiling your kernel.
Your cross-compiler doesn't seem to work on my Ubuntu workstation, so I installed another/newer one (gcc-linaro-4.9-2014.11-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabi)

With this compiler and some small modifications I got it to finish the compilation of the kernel and modules successfully, but once I install the kernel on my OPI-PC I get a kernel panic because of a hard lockup on CPU 3
I tried a different kernel (https://github.com/steffen-g/orangepipc) and this one compiles and works fine.

Can you give me any hints ?
I would like to compile your kernel because of the additional (wireless) drivers

Thanks

You may use the kernel offered by steffen-g and, use

make menuconfig

Copy code

to select the drivers you want.
If these are USB drivers, you should better generate them as modules so that you need only to compile / install these modules
(make modules, depmod and cp to /lib/modules/3.4.39/).
