well.. not sure you can do much on 6.06, might want to try a 8.04 livecd, maybe that gets it working.. Try the stock Ubuntu 8.04 if the emc2 one doesn't do the trick. What I would do is get a cheapo access point, and set that up as a client, that way you connect using a regular eth card.

I assumed the wrapping of the windows driver was what was the problem but is there possibly more to it? When I'm back healthy and using my mill again I plan to run CAT5 to the garage but if there is something additional I may be able to try? Would save buying a whole 'nother box of cable for this run.

If that still doesn't make it work, you might also need 'linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-16-rtai' Regards, Alex ----- Original Message ----- From: Bryce Johnson To: emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2008 10:42 PM Subject: [Emc-users] Laptop Pcmcia wireless not working I'm just started to use emc and I have cut out just a few things. I was surprised that it worked fine even though it is a 700mhz 128ram... and a laptop at that. I had ubuntu 8.04 installed and later ran the script to install emc. One thing that is a little annoying. I have pcmcia wireless card that works fine in regular ubuntu. But when I run the rtai kernel version that the script generated, my wireless no longer works. Does the pcmcia or certain wireless drivers get disabled by default in the install? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users No virus found in this incoming message.
