The Atheros wireless does not work. It goes up, associate to the access point was NetworkManager (WPA encryption) but ping to the gateway is very unreliable.
Hmm, I've just tried a more-or-less similar card and was able to ping without too much packet loss. Could you elaborate the effect you get a bit more? Do you have packet loss or is pinging not possible at all? Thanks. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

module parameter nohwcrypt=1?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no such param in 11.1. HW crypt support was added later than 2.6.27. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Looks similar to the issue reported at [1]. Do you get a better connection if you load ath5k with the module parameter nohwcrypt=1?
[1] http://www.mail-archive.com/ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org/msg01826.html
Looks like the same hardware and the same symptoms. As for the modprobe: ath5k: Unknown parameter `nohwcrypt' (to confirm comment #11) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There is no package.

this ain't a package. zypper does not know how to install it.
Ah, rpm is not as easy to build. Could you just unpack it by tar and rmmod current drivers and insmod those unpacked? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

"cp -a drivers net /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/"
You don't even need to copy it anywhere. Just load it from that unpacked directory by insmod.
Of course, the easiest way to do all of this, in my opinion, is download the compat-wireless code directly from wireless.kernel.org and compile it yourself.
I've found few packagers of compat-wireless on http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=openSUSE%3A11.1&p=4&q=compat-wireless You can pick one of them, e.g. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Akoellh/openSUSE_11.1_Update... and install rpm from there. If something doesn't work, just uninstall the rpm and reboot... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
