No WPA with Orinoco - only WEP - IINM. Please check the archives for more: <http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.ports.powerpc?hl=en> Also a look to your kern.log output when loading airport/orinoco etc. drivers might suggest what's going on: Firmware determined as Lucent/Agere 8.70 Ad-hoc demo mode supported IEEE standard IBSS ad-hoc mode supported WEP supported, 104-bit key See the last line? As to 2.6.13: from <http://www.kismetwireless.net/Forum/General/Messages/1128186950.6834829> ------------------- > And what about patches for 2.6.13 in-kernel Orinoco drivers? What about them? I don't run .13 because it has too many issues for my taste. Either don't run 0.13, or someone can port the patches and send them to me. 2.6.13 has totally different in-kernel drivers than previous versions, it's a variant of 0.15 which has a lot of flaws and issues. ----------------- I still run 2.6.12. And Orinoco works without "waproamd" here, I didn't even know the tool until you mentioned it ... :) HTH Best Regards Wolfgang -- Wolfgang Pfeiffer http://profiles.yahoo.com/wolfgangpfeiffer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
