Hello, everyone I am new to this list and also a newbie for linux. I want to get my wireless card working in linux. It is Dlink DWL 520 with reaktek rtl8180 chipset. Somewhat expert users please help me :) I am writing what I have done till now:
I found the driver from realtek site http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?Keyword=rtl8180 It contains precompiled driver rtl8180_24x.o for redhat 9, kernel 2.4.20 and also source code and script files to bring the interface up and down. I have Mandrake 9.2 so thought I have to compile it myself. I downloaded kernel source rpm, installed it. Then did make, to compile the driver I don't know if it worked but it showed 2 or 3 warnings and generated the output rtl8180.o then I did makeinstall now when I run the script './wlanup infra' it shows following, [EMAIL PROTECTED] rtl8180_1.5]# ./wlanup infra insmod: a module named rtl8180_24x already exists infra ./wlanup: line 23: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory ./wlanup: line 24: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory ./wlanup: line 52: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory ./wlanup: line 53: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory ./wlanup: line 64: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory ./wlanup: line 72: /sbin/iwpriv: No such file or directory I am writing commands on these lines in wlanup script for reference 23 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 wlan_para networktype=infra 24 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 wlan_para ssid2scan=iit 52 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 wlan_para encmode=off 53 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 wlan_para wepmode=off 64 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 msglevel 0 72 /sbin/iwpriv wlan0 enable Thank you. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
