Hello,
Since I've upgraded Suse 10.2 to 11 on my laptop, network configuration became a mess, while ifconfig gives:
ifconfig -a
pan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 16:2C:D8:0A:82:07 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
wmaster0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-14-A4-3C-E2-52-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 lg file transmission:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
interfaces wmaster0 and pan0 are not present in the network configuration of yast; and ndiswrapper is unable to create a new interface...
Does anybody know how to configurate such hardware? To be more precise I'm working on a laptop acer Ferrari4000 serie, using a Broadcom BCM4318 AirForceOne 54g; under suse10.2 it worked (approximatively) with ndiswrapper, but how does it go with suse11?
Thank you in advance for any suggestion Michel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
pan0 seems to be some sort of software driver. Its manfacturer code is in a range (16:) reserved for private devices. Your wlan0 is actually manufactured by Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co., Ltd. (probably under license). Vmaster? I have no clue. The only reference I've ever seen has to do with sound control in the linux kernel. Its almost like network setup is picking up some oddball devices an thinking they are network cards. I wonder if you could post output of lspci ? -- ----------JSA--------- Someone stole my tag line, so now I have this rental. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
