From: Richard Hainsworth <richard@rusrating.ru> To: community-en@altlinux.org Subject: [Comm-en] Aetheros Card (D-Link DWL 650) Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2004 09:37:59 +0400 Message-ID: <1088573879.2014.17.camel@smilingface.rusrating.ru> (raw) I have a new D-Link pcmcia card which has the Aethoros chip set. My distro is Compact 2.3 I used cardctl to get the card information to get PRODID_1="Atheros Communications, Inc." PRODID_2="AR5001-0000-0000" PRODID_3="Wireless LAN Reference Card" PRODID_4="00" MANFID=0271,0012 FUNCID=6 Then I updated the file /etc/pcmcia/config with card "Atheros Communications, Inc." manfid 0271,0012 bind airo_cs However, I doubt the driver is right. The following instructions are part of a receipe I found on the net for redhat cd /lib/modules/{kernel}/madwifi insnode wlan.o insnode ath_hal.o insnode ath_pci.o The first two exit without error but the last produces the error on stderr and a message in dmesg ath_pci.o: init_module: No such device and using dmesg: ath_pci: 0.8.3.2 BETA (Sam Leffler <sam@errno.com>) ath_pci: No devices found, driver not installed. iwconfig produces: lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. irlan0 no wireless extensions. So what do I need to do to get the madwifi working? Richard
