I try to install on my laptop Aspire 5315 with openSUSE 11.0 madwifi following the instructions of 'First Time User' HOWTO but at make I get 'command not found'. Andre,
If you have installed any madwifi rpms already, remove them. Then:
(1) Go download/install the madwifi rpms from:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/schmolle1980/openSUSE_11.0/
(2) After the install, start yast and configure the new network device:
Under the 'General' tab, 'Divice Control' select 'Enable Device Control for Non-root User Via Kinternet'
Under the 'Address' tab, select Dynamic Address
Under the 'Hardware' tab, make sure the Module Name is 'ath_pci'
Click Next:
Operating Mode: Managed
Enter your SSID
Enter you Authentication Mode, etc..
(3) Next you will simply need to start network manager and add and configure your card.
(4) If you run into trouble after that, take a look at:
http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/howto/madwifi_SuSE_11.0
Following your advice I downloaded r3725+AR5007EG_2.6.25.5_1.1-2.2-x86_64 instead of
madwifi-kpm-default 0.9.4_2.6.25.5_2-1-x86_64, although it's 4 days younger.
In Yast I could not adjust AR242x802.11 abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter because of missing Kernel device (eth0, wlan0)
For configuring I had the choice between User controlled with Networkmanager and traditional method with ifup.
Under the 'Hardware' tab I could not find a 'ath_pci' module.
iwconfig gave:
1o no wireless extensions
eth0 no wireless extensions
I'm still hopefull, André
Do you have the kernel source installed? IIRC you need the kernel source for the post install script of the madwifi driver to build the ath_pci.ko kernel module against. If you don't have it installed, install the kernel-source and kernel-syms and then reinstall madwifi and I bet you have an ath_pci.ko module after that ;-) -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
