Just wondering if anyone has had an luck with getting there att wireless card working with 11.1. It sees my card but I do know what info to put in to make it connect. This is the first time I have it recognize the aircard. We as Novell for training this past week an hear guy ( forget his last name) speaking on sled 11 an opensuse 11.1 , he said it would be easier to setup wireless aircards in these releases.
Jack, on my Toshiba laptop, 11.1 added what turned out to be a bogus device, as ath0. That was configured using the values that were originally set for my original atheros card. It disabled that original card, which had been set up to use ath_pci by madwifi, and which was now called wlan0. (The original card was disabled, and its configuration removed.) After a lot of experimentation, I set the bogus device to never start, and restored the configuration for wlan0, starting it at boot time. I set it to use the ath5k module, rather than the old ath_pci, and eventually got things working again. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
