Hi everyone
I'm using sidux nyx and have posted on the forum there but haven't had
much response so i'm wondering if someone here might be able to help.
I configured my wlan card this evening. Although, it needs to be
activated manually each time i start up
the machine.
I'm using a Dell xps 1330 laptop with an intel pro-wireless networkcard.
output from lspci:
Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network
Connection (rev 02)
I configured it using 'ceni' and followed the instructions from the sidux
manual.
I read the same problem in an earlier thread, using the same network card
as me. The solution there seemed to be editing /etc/network/interfaces. I
think i have the correct entries in the file and i'm now stuck. Heres the
contents of /etc/network/interfaces:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-essid **********
wireless-key ***********
Also, not sure if it's useful, but i did 'dmesg | grep wlan' which shows:
~$ dmesg | grep wlan
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
When i was using OpenSUSE, my wireless connection was configured
using eth1, not wlan0 and the wifi light would come on. Should i try
configuring eth1 rather than wlan0 and if so would you be able to explain
how to do that.
I'd be really grateful for some advice.
Jamie
