According to the log the card _is_ detected. So what exactly is your problem?
In my original report, I mentioned detecting *and* setting up the wifi. It has been a while now, but I recall that YaST -> Network Devices -> Network Card did not display the wifi interface, and if added, it could not be made operational. Have since found that a workaround is the ndisinstaller application on packman. I didn't agree with the initial assessment that it was a hardware detection issue - I had assumed it was a driver issue since I believe the hardware detection had been fixed in the transition 10.2 -> 10.3 - sorry for confusion! -- 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.
