I have a new router (D-Link DIR-615) and a new wireless card (Intel 5300agn) in my notebook machine, and was unable to establish communication between them. After several days of puzzlement, I began to entertain the notion that one or both were defective.
There are vendors that do not install firmware on the device before it goes out the door. They expect the user to run the installer app on windoze or mac that will write the firmware image to the device's flash memory if it's not there. If a device doesn't work with Linux out of the box, try installing it on a windoze or mac box and then try it on the Linux box. There may be firmware loaded but it's more likely to be some kind of production test junk requiring a completely different kind of driver. It would be interesting to whip up an installer in Linux that could also read whatever firmware is on the device. == jd If they can make penicillin out of moldy bread, they can sure make something out of you. -- Muhammad Ali -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFLQghAhpL3F+HeDrIRArvHAKCaWeKFIQ45AjEqcqr7AM4oqLOMCgCfe4XO VydW0W5oXE++e5S+ytvN6Vg= =oeEG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
