Hello list,
Sorry for troubling with something that is most probably a silly problem,
however I wasn't able to setup wireless on my own today. I reinstalled lenny
from scratch using a fresh snapshot of netinst lenny installer.
I am using b43 module
# lsmod|grep b43
b43 134400 0
rfkill 10132 3 rfkill_input,b43
rng_core 8036 1 b43
mac80211 169868 1 b43
input_polldev 7752 1 b43
ssb 45924 1 b43
pcmcia 38928 2 b43,ssb
pcmcia_core 41112 5 b43,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic,ssb,pcmcia
firmware_class 11296 2 b43,pcmcia
This is hwo far I got. I added two lines to /etc/network/interfaces
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan
here is the output of ifconfig -a
