Problem with WLAN in RC1
Hi, I have just installed RC1 on my Compaq 610c laptop. Most of all, I am impressed of the speed, even openoffice is a quickstarter :-) BUT I have problems with the WLAN. I have a netgear WAG511 pc-card. When I plug it in, I can see it in yast, and configure it. The all fun stops....!! There is no way I can see it with ifconfig... Even if I turn of my internal eth0 and reboot, I can see no trace of it. I have tried with ifconfig wlan0 up, but with no positive response. I should try a modprobe, but I don't know wich module to probe. Anyone have any ideas? This worked very well in 9.3, and many versions before that.... Regards Fredrik Sjöstedt

I guess you need the kernel-default-nogpl and maybe some firmware packages. They are available from: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/10.0/ Regards Christoph
