Just try it out. You will just need to follow the instructions. If it doesn't work then try the kernel prakash gives. Take your time, studies are important too :p
About shipping the PC, I will have to check around. But, you still have time for it so let my exams finish.

Hey..After a long break I tried it...
The readme just asked to give the normal make n make install command!

As Soon as I issued the make command I gt this message
***Linux kernel source not configured-Missing config.h stop!

Even tried gvng make install directly but gt the same error msg.
I gt three files after the extraction of the tar files i.e makefile,readme n sc92031.c

So I even tried compiling the .c file(just a wild guess frm me!) gv the command
gcc sc92031.c
I gt screenful of message with warnings,errors etc etc but it was ntng gr8...i could see no change!

Um sorry, I think maybe you can get it installed offline. You will need the build-essential as a dependency though, install that from the CD/DVD. :)

Darn, a month away from Ubuntu and I'm feeling so strange already, heh.

Prakash it will be better if you can do it for him. If I get enough time I can compile one. Nitish give the output of lspci and lsusb.
