[mythtv-users] OT - Wireless auto startup - What am I missing
Sorry for hte OT post, ut I've exhausted myself with everything I can find with Google and din't get much help from the other mailing list. I've got a myth BE/FE machine that I want to move to the living room and make part of the entertainment center. The more I thought about it wireless made a lot of sense because I'd just be using it to retrieve the weatherdata, and the listing info, neither of which should be bandwidth intensive. That said I can't move it until I get a working wireless connection. I'm running FC3 and kernel 2.6.10-1.741. I've got a D-Link DWL-G510 trying to connect to a D-Link DI-524. I'm having to use NDISWRAPPER because D-Link doesn't supply a Linux driver. Here is the problem. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get this thing working at startup. I can get it to work. I can ping the router after running a few short commands. I have tried several startup scripts, but they are goig th have to be run as root when my mythtv user is automatically logged in. Any pointers? I know FC3 has some problems with stuff at startup as indicated by Jarod's startup workarounds. Where do I start?

I would start by trying to insert the script in /etc/rc.local that gets executed at bootime and is normally executed at the root level ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Thanks , John Williams this is the card I use: http://www.dlink.com/products/?model=DWL-520 I use the acx drivers: http://acx100.sourceforge.net/ the drivers come with a startup_net script.. I just put this at the beginning of rc.local and all works well.. and don't forget the firmware binaries the compatibility matrix: http://acx100.sourceforge.net/matrix.html doesn't specifically mention my card.. but I found various references to it from a google search so tried it.. works perfectly might want to give that a shot.. hth Craig ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
