Ordering their driver is not an option for me, also they put gpl as
their license where clearly it's not gpl (there is a long debate about
this on the gentoo forum). Plus I have not written the script, if you
seek for linuxant you'll find the script too.
Thus if this post doesn't fit here, moderators can put it down.
The driver is easy to install but "I'm a poor 15
yr old high school student, so I can't rly afford to buy any software
right now. Any ideas that don't involve money?"
That's why someone wrote the script.
