Re: [Mageia-dev] RaLink 3062 WiFi card
hi, It turns out that support for this chip (see subject) is disabled in mageia kernels: # CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX is not set # CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX is not set Similar options for the rt2800 USB driver are also not enabled. Christiaan
[Mageia-dev] RaLink 3062 WiFi card
Hi I've two PCs with the same RaLink 3062 WiFi card. Those cards are currently (since kernel 2.6.38 or 37) supported by kernel (modules marked as stable). The problem is that on one of the computers I've debian testing with 2.6.39 kernel and it automatically loads proper modules and WiFi card works, and on Mageia PC nothing happens. I tried both 2.6.38 and 3.0.0 kernels (on Mageia) and: * no module is loaded automatically * even if I load proper module manually, nothing happens (module seems to be somehow not related to proper device) some info: lspci -v debian: 05:03.0 Network controller: RaLink Device 3062 Subsystem: RaLink Device 3062 Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 17 Memory at dfce (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3 Kernel driver in use: rt2800pci mageia: 05:00.0 Network controller: RaLink Device 3062 Subsystem: RaLink Device 3062 Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 10 Memory at fa10 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Capabilities: access denied modules mageia: (after modprobe rt2800pci) lsmod | grep rt2 rt2800pci 18476 0 rt2800lib 53777 1 rt2800pci crc_ccitt 12667 1 rt2800lib rt2x00pci 14477 1 rt2800pci rt2x00lib 49476 3 rt2800pci,rt2800lib,rt2x00pci mac80211 240860 3 rt2800lib,rt2x00pci,rt2x00lib cfg80211 187537 2 rt2x00lib,mac80211 eeprom_93cx6 12725 1 rt2800pci debian: lsmod |grep rt2 rt2800pci 17800 0 rt2800lib 43106 1 rt2800pci crc_ccitt 12347 1 rt2800lib rt2x00pci 12779 1 rt2800pci rt2x00lib 37704 3 rt2800pci,rt2800lib,rt2x00pci mac80211 181270 3 rt2800lib,rt2x00pci,rt2x00lib cfg80211 126244 2 rt2x00lib,mac80211 eeprom_93cx6 12455 1 rt2800pci iwconfig debian: lono wireless extensions. eth1 no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn mageia: lono wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. any ideas what can be wrong (maybe blocked somewhere?) ? I'm using Mageia 1, but for tests I've installed kernel 3.0.0 from Cauldron Best regards -- Michał Walenciak gmail.com kicer86 http://kicer.sileman.net.pl gg: 3729519

You may need one of the following packages from the nonfree section: rt2860-firmware rt2870-firmware rt3090-firmware rt61-firmware rt73-firmware kernel-firmware-extra (for rt3070.bin and rt3071.bin) Christiaan

I was testing those drivers in 2.6.36 (or 35) when they were experimental. And those days it was workig. I had my own (compiled by myself) kernel however. regards -- Michał Walenciak gmail.com kicer86 http://kicer.sileman.net.pl gg: 3729519
