Desktop WiFi
I have some ISA/PCMCIA adapters that I have not made to work with PCMCIA wifi cards. Can someone tell me what modules I need to load? Or what other magical incantations need to be invoked? I have installed all the normal laptop stuff. Right now, I'm trying this with a Libranet 2.8 and a 2.4.21 kernel, but I have also tried Ubuntu and 2.6.x kernel. -- Willie, ONWARD!

Have you done apt-get update? If you are using a 2.2 kernel, you are probably using Woody.

Are the wifi cards "PCMCIA" or "Cardbus"? I don't think Cardbus can actually translate to ISA? Or is your "ISA/PCMCIA" adaptor really a "PCI/Cardbus" one and this really should work? Does dmesg show anything after a "PCMCIA" card is inserted? Is hotplug running? Does "lspci" show your PCMCIA (cardbus?) bridge? Do you have the "pcmcia-cs" package installed? If you can answer these questions it will give us all a good start on finding some more questions to ask you... :-) Regards, Andrew McMillan. - Andrew @ Catalyst .Net .NZ Ltd, PO Box 11-053, Manners St, Wellington WEB: http://catalyst.net.nz/PHYS: Level 2, 150-154 Willis St DDI: +64(4)803-2201 MOB: +64(272)DEBIAN OFFICE: +64(4)499-2267 Would that my hand were as swift as my tongue. -- Alfieri - signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
