Re: "Pwireless2 now in Quirky"

I advised not to because I don't have a script that will make it work correctly with other network managers. If you read the pwireless2 thread you will see nothing but problems with pwireless2 trying to coexist with network wizard.

I've always intended pwireless2/frisbee to be the only network manager you need and haven't dedicated any time to making it play well with others.

Jemimah, I appreciate that you always want to bring out a product that's quality. Indeed no need to get a sloppy product.

I started 5.2 with a new save file.
Didn't use SNS nor the NW wizard. So none of the two have generated config files.
Installed Pwireless2

Can there still be interaction then?
In this case, is your advice not to use Pwireless2 still valid then?

That should work fine.

You may need to increase the sleep time in /etc/rc.d/rc.services if pwireless2 is starting before the driver for your NIC is done loading. I think that happens in LuPu a lot.

Apparently I don't have timing problems.
But I still have my issue that quite some times an new page gives a 'address not found...........try again' panel.
Sometimes multiple pushing doesn't help and I see on the antenna a little cross, so no connection. However when I wait a while, without remaking the connection, all of a sudden it is established again and I can continue for a while.

I may have said it before, with Fluppy 10 and LightHouse 500G I don't have this problem.

I reported it in the Lucid thread several times now, but so far no reaction on it.

So Pwireless2 seems to be my easiest interim solution.
