Hello Martin,

Thanks so much for the tip! Kernel compilation was ok now

 I rebooted with the new kernel and I could see the new urtwn0
interface! I wanted to test the interface but I have lost ssh
connection (I am at work and the machine is at home, using ethernet
driver).

I logged in again and:
