TP-Link TL-WN725N version 2 with 3.8 Kernel

[kyle_l88]

Hey guys, I am hoping this is in the right section. I have been looking around for a few days now and so far what I can tell is that this USB Wifi dongle aka TL-WN725N V2 works out of the box on openelec and other distros. It seems people have compiled the modules for other kernel versions and in some of the distros it's already included. It seems that there is not a module around for the 3.8.13+ kernel that we are running in Xbian Beta 1. Does anyone have any idea how I could get this working? I am somewhat familiar with building and compiling drivers from scratch for linux normally but it seems there is a lack of info for this kernel so far. Maybe it's too new still and no one has really attempted to create a module yet and pass it around ( I remember that people were passing around the .ko file for this wifi dongle for other flavors of xbmc ).
Any help or direction would be much appreciated.

Andd.. I Just realized this should be in Hardware as I found another thread topic there on this. That being said I wonder if there is a way to build a new module for the 3.8 kernels
