I'm using the testing ipw3945d.

I put the init script in my boot runlevel, but I think the magical way of 
doing it (which I'm going to test next time I boot this computer) is to 
put in /etc/conf.d/net:

RC_NEED_{iface}=ipw3945d

AFAICT, this will cause net.{iface} to first start ipw3945d.

Hi Gabriel,


do you use ipw3945d stable or testing?
it seems the stable release has problems with udev 103, mybe try to use the
testing ipw3945d.
I use testing and i didn´ t had any problems after the update of udev. also
testing comes with an rc-start-script now.

Hello Jakommo,

I use testing (~x86), I see the startup script, but before coldplug took 
care of running it when I switched on my wifi,

I'd like that same convenient way of doing things if possible.

Regards,
Gabriel

ok , I don't have a solution for this one.

I let the script start at bootup and if I need wifi I turn the switch on and
if I'm finished I turn it off and ipw3945d runs all the time if I need it or
not, but I think it doesn't take that much capacity from my system.
