wireless drivers for 2.02
If anyone has recompiled the drivers for the new version, 2.02, could you please post them here? In particular I'm looking for the madwifi driver but I'm sure everyone would be happy the more drivers we get!
(PS, I did post in the main wireless drivers thread but I think it would be good to have a thread just for using wireless in 2.02.)
(PS, I did post in the main wireless drivers thread but I think it would be good to have a thread just for using wireless in 2.02.)
Here's the madwifi driver. There are 3 small scripts :
install -- just copies the modules to /lib/modules/2.6.16.7/net/wireless/madwifi (just run this once)
load_module -- insmods ath_pci.ko (should bring the card up)
unload_module -- rmmods ath_pci.ko (should shut the card down)
If the card is always in the computer, you could add this line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local to bring the card up at boot:
modprobe ath_pci.ko
ifconfig ath0 up (don't know if this line is needed)
Can't test it, I don't have this card.
EDIT: I changed the install path to match what Violetdream did.

Thank, in advance
the fix is out thier :lol:
kirk, your ZyDAS driver for 2.02 only appear to have the 1211b driver but not the 1211 one?
Does anyone have anything similar to the 2.01 dotpup driver found at -
http://www.dotpups.de/dotpups/Wifi/wire ... 11-r76.pup
That one seems to work fine with my AirLink 101 / ZyDAS 1211 USB 2.0, but I can't get wifi to work at all with 2.02. Thanks!

OK. I downloaded and saved the madwifi.tar.gz file to /root/my-applicationskirk wrote:Here's the madwifi driver. There are 3 small scripts :

Then I clicked on it, Select All, and Extracted.
I opened the madwifi-092 folder and clicked on theinstall icon.
Nada.
What step am I missing or performing incorrectly, please?
Thanks! doc

HEY!!! Guess what? Powered up this morning and there is was!kirk wrote:Edoc,
I don't have the card, so I can't really test it. I hoped that you could click on install (just the first time). Then click on load_module to activate the card and unload_module to deactivate the card.
If that doesn't work, maybe violetdream can chime in!
WIRELESS IS BACK!
Not sure what was happening before, perhaps install just happened so fast I didn't see it?
Hooray!
OK, will get myself properly composed again ...
Thanks! doc
