[opensuse] Has someone found any driver for Intels 3945 card on the openSUSE-10.3 DVDs?
I've also tried to compile ipw3945-1.2.1, it doesn't compile and iwl3945 is too buggy that both notebooks Lenovo Z61p and Sony VGN-G11VN are not working.

Works for me. The compilation, that is. Perhaps it is because I have a solid new fluffy kernel :P

There's a suse binary rpm on my copy of the dvd: ipw3945d-1.7.18-29.i586.rpm It's working fine on my hp dv6000. John Perry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes, but this is only the user space daemon, isn't it? If i've enabled the radio switch on my Z61p at installation time, iwl3945 is loaded but after installation i get an Kernel oops and the system isn't responsible. If i've disabled WLAN, i can install the whole system but i really don't know where the kernel module is!

You're quite right. Sorry. However, since I know I've never compiled a kernel module for linux, and my laptop worked pretty quickly after I bought a wifi router, I'm pretty sure it is in the suse system. I looked in the kernel package for something that might be it, but didn't see anything. I have the Intel iwlwifi and ipw3945 sites in my bookmarks, but I don't recall ever downloading anything from them, and I just set up my wifi in the middle of June, so I'd have remembered anything more complicated than downloading and installing a binary rpm. But I really don't remember even that. Have you actually tried setting your machine up with the original suse installation? jp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes, both 64bit on the z61p and 32bit on the Sony. And compiling ipw3945 doesn't work either. So i've installed a vanilla 2.6.22.3 with ipw3945 and everything is fine. Only a tip to openSUSE community, don't put iwl3945 into standard, it doesn't work. Better an old driver with users apce daemon then a broken driver.
