Hi everybody,
I have a miniPCI WLAN card for my Soekris net4801 with an Agere Systems
chip. This card seems to emulate a PCMCIA slot and the standard orinoco.o
driver that comes with Bering uClibc gives the folowing error (when using
the pcmcia_orinoco.lrp package):
Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.2.7
kernel build: 2.4.24 unknown
options: [pci] [cardbus] [apm]
Intel ISA/PCI/CardBus PCIC probe:

eth3: Error -2 reading firmware info. Wildly guessing capabilities...

eth3: Looks like an Intersil firmware version 0.0.0
eth3: Intersil firmware earlier than v0.8.x - several features not supported
eth3: Ad-hoc demo mode supported
eth3: failed to read MAC address!
orinoco_cs: register_netdev() failed
The problem is (I think) that the card isn't really compatible with the
orinoco driver (its a HermesII chip).
Agere Systems has an opensource driver available from their website
(http://www.agere.com/support/drivers/index.html).
I was wondering if anybody had compiled this driver against uClibc for
Bering uClibc? I don't have any experience in compiling packages for
uClibc and don't really want to get into that if I don't have to.
Hope somebody can help me,
