I've compiled the ath5k driver as module on 2.6.27.6 on my eeepc 701: I can load and unload the module without any odd things going on, I can see the intervafe ath0 along with wmaster0 with ifconfig and iwconfig and I can use iwconfig to set up ath0 with my wlan parameters ....
But I cannot manage to get connection to my AP and the Access Point value returned from iwconfig is allways "Not-Associated" even when the wlan parameters are 100% correct. I've posted more details about this here:http://slackeee.strangled.net/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=184#p184 I had the same problem with 2.6.27.4 but I used to get a lot of error messages when I remove the module. On previous kernels (2.6.25.10) I used to compile separately madwifi-nr-r3366+ar5007 but in no longer builds agains newer kernels and the http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/special/ seem be no longer maintained: [ ] madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3698-20080604.tar.gz 04-Jun-2008 12:20 4.2M [ ] madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007.tar.gz 27-Jul-2008 08:05 485 [ ] madwifi-ng-r3366+ar5007.tar.gz 27-Jul-2008 08:05 491 [ ] madwifi-nr-r3366+ar5007.tar.gz 27-Jul-2008 08:05 491 Symlink to madwifi-ng... to fix external links to the formerly misspelled archive name as I doubt any of those <500 byte tarballs have anything useful inside. Anyone else have the same problems on their 701 and has anyone solved it ? Have any ideas how I can get new kernel and wifi card working on my eeepc 701 ?
