with current git master head (2.6.33 rc5) on my openSUSE 11.2/x86-64 system my wlan does not work anymore together with NetworkManager.
NetworkManager does not seem to find the iwl3945 at all: $ nm-tool
NetworkManager Tool

But the network scripts know about it: # rcnetwork restart Shutting down the NetworkManager done Shutting down network interfaces: eth0 device: Intel Corporation 82566MM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) eth0 done wlan0 device: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) wlan0 done Shutting down service network . . . . . . . . . done Starting the NetworkManager done

uname -a tells me: Linux x61s-aj 2.6.33-rc5-0.0.8.571d274-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-01-27 20:25:07 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
And rpm -q shows: kernel-desktop-2.6.33-0.0.8.571d274.x86_64
Any ideas?
What about more, let's call it, low level tools? Could you try iwconfig iwlist scan ? -- Rafał -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
