Package: madwifi-source
Version: 0.svn20051110-1
Severity: normal
Thanks for packaging madwifi.
/usr/share/doc/madwifi-source/README.Debian is missing a step. If I
create an /etc/network/interfaces stanza of
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wireless_essid my-SSID
wireless_key mh-key
and run "ifup eth1", I get:
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device eth1 ; No such device.
Can you either describe how you map eth1 to the ath_pci module in your
README, or could you create an /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi file that
contains the appropriate aliases (or whatever is necessary to make this
happen automatically)?
For some reason, adding "alias eth1 ath_pci" to /etc/modprobe.d/local
isn't working for me...
Thanks!
