Hi again, Well, I was lucky enough to find some binaries for the TI acx100 chipset. The one compiled for 2.4.20 with gcc 3.2 loads with success.
But lsmod shows that the module is unused. I have an eth1 representing the wireless NIC, but lwconfig list it as having "no wireless extensions" So I can't set the essid, etc., etc. I'm not sure how I can have an eth1 when the module is unused. I don't know whether pci-scan.o has anything to do with it. Any help, Thanks, James. -----Original Message----- From: James Neave Sent: 09 October 2003 16:03 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [leaf-user] TI ACX100 based wireless NIC problem. Hello All, *sighs* Well, Alex has managed to buy hardware that seems to universally hate linux... We have a D-LINK 520+ pci wifi nic based on the TI ACX100 chipset. There is a very early open driver for it here http://sourceforge.net/projects/acx100/ Which is still alpha. And a guide to use the closed driver here http://www.hack.gr/users/panxer/wireless/ This sounds more useful. But there are some things in there that confuse me. (not hard) "I tried the driver and works with my Debian 3.r0, 2.4.18 system." Sounds promising. The second link lists this as a step: Build the 2.4.18 kernel with: CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_KMOD=y CONFIG_NET_RADIO=y CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=y Means nothing to me, has the Bering kernel been compiled like this? "3. Get wireless-tools by Jean Tourrilhes and build them" Is this what wireless.lrp is? Thanks!
