Hi all, I believe I found an error in the startup sequence. In /etc/rcS.d/ you find a symling S20networking and S20pcmcia and S40pcmciautils. IMO the line is wrong, as pcmcia should first be initialized and then the networking should be started. When I do understand it correctly, then als the scripts are starting alphanumerically.
So S40networking should be S41networking. Are my thoughts correct ? Maybe this would explain some thing, a am not able to manage. To activate my wlancard I first have to load a special kernel-module /this works fine) and then enter the command : echo "enabled : 1" > /proc/acpi/acer/wireless (It is a special thing only for Acer notebooks) I am doing this command with a script. But I have to execute this script afer network initialisation again and have to restart network again. After this everything works. Why do I have to do it twice ? I suppose, because pcmcia initialisation destroys the network due to the wrong sequence of networking and pcmcia. Any hints are welcome !
