I believe modprobe won't make any difference. It only finds hard dependencies, i.e. modules required for _loading_ the requested module, not for making it function. What happened here is ath5k could be loaded but could not find optional modules for WEP functionality. On the other hand, "Automatic kernel module loading" (CONFIG_KMOD) should have made it completely automatic. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
