You cant.
1. That driver compiled for x86 architecture but TV uses ARM architecture.
2. Ubuntu's kernel is 2.6.35 but tv uses 2.6.18(?). I mean versions are mismatch.
3. it's not "Ralink" or "rt" device but Realtek.

If you could find driver for kernel 2.6.18 for your dongle, I guess you can use that dongle with your TV too.
But you needed to recompile that driver with TV's linux kernel source to make it compatible.

Hi, I'm following the guide posted on wiki and I'm having problems. I have a le40c650 with firmware 3005.1 and I can't load the rt73.ko module. I get the following error:

insmod: cannot insert 'rt73.ko': Invalid module format (-1): Exec format error

I have also tried with 1002 firmware and I had no success. Are the modules wrong? I'm sure, that the rt73 would work, as it works under ubuntu. I tried using the modules from http://sourceforge.net/projects/samygo/ ... p/download

Are the modules only for B series tvs?
