Pinout compatability?

[milkpirate]

Hey, I am using the adapter from here https://sites.google.com/site/mincepi/pi2wifi, which connects the ESP to the RPi0 like so:

I.e.:

Though I use a ESP-12E instead of an F. With this pinout:

The CH_PD/RST pin maps to GPIO19. Setting it like so:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/esp.conf
options esp8089 esp_reset_gpio=19

sadly does not work:

$ dmesg -w

Is the driver from here even compatible with the pinout from above? Can you help me troubleshoot?
