Hi Wayne,
So the mystery continues. The chipset (according to lspci) is AR2413
which according to Madwifi compatibility = AR5005G. The driver must be
acer-wmi and NOT ath_pci which was what I tried. This is part of the
2.6.25 kernel so I'll modprobe that one and report back on the ifconfig
output to see if it's more like yours.
...
aaarrrggghhhh!
This is not going to be easy, is it? When I try
#modprobe -v acer-wmi
I get FATAL: Error inserting acer_wmi
(/lib/modules/2.6.25-2-686/kernel/drivers/misc/acer-wmi.ko): No such
device Back to square 1?
Cheers,
Jonathan
Try    modprobe acer_wmi

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep -i acer /boot/coacer_wmi
/boot/config-2.6.25-2-amd64:CONFIG_ACER_WMI=m

Thank you Wayne,
I'll change that to /boot/config-2.6.25-2-686:CONFIG_ACER_WMI=m

Change what??  The last line was a hint as to find out if the module
was in the kernel or not.

Just use modprobe acer_wmi, better yet do
cat "acer_wmi"  >> /etc/modules
which will add that module to the end of the /etc/modules file.

Remember to use the >> 'not' > or you will wipe out the other modules in that file.

Have fun....

Wayne
