[Madwifi-users] Cannot make my pcmcia Proxim model 8470-WD working with madwifi drivers
|
From: Philippe E. <zy...@ho...> - 2005-08-02 14:57:01

Hi everybody,
I'm running a Gentoo 2.6.12-r6 on a laptop (Acer Travelmate 8104WLMi). I'm
trying to use the madwifi driver with my pcmcia Proxim, model 8470-WD, with
no success.
I know the card is properly working under Windows on this laptop. It also
worked on the live Mepis distro.
I'm using the aircrack-patched driver version 20050707 on the advice of the
aircrack 2.2 beta 12. BUT, i've also done the tests with the gentoo-portage,
with the last version of the madwifi driver (unpatched) but with the same
results.
All the steps described below have been done with this particular 20050707
patched version.
During the tests, I can see the leds of the cards blinking.
My impression is that the card is working perfectly (accordind to the led
and the lack of error messages); but that in some way the informations of
the cards aren't catched by the apps... Or my second hypothesis is that the
radio isn't activated ?? Or maybe something is missing in my kernel
configuration...
Please help, I really don't know what to do to get it up
Thanks in advance.
Phil
PS : sorry for the huge message...
