The current solution in Ubuntu is to call wlan-udev.sh from the udev rules, and this one calls wlan_enable (a function from /etc/wlan/shared) which loads the firmware before setting ifstate=enable. Then the network configuration is done by later udev rules (i.e. ifupdown which calls linux-wlan-ng-pre-up) or directly by network-manager. How is this done in Debian? Which rule sets up the wlan device? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
