Vincent,
Are you using a standard LM 8.2 installation? SMC2632W Wireless card?
Do you have WEP128 enabled?
If yes to all that, sure I'd like to know how you did it :) :)
I'd like to know what you have in your config files:
PCMCIA setup
------------
/etc/pcmcia/config
card "Intersil PRISM2 11 Mbps Wireless Adapter"
Which module to you bind to? (default is "wvlan_cs")
NETWORK setup
-------------
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/draknet.conf
the parameters EthxKnown=, EthxIP=, and so on for your
ethernet interface for the wireless card
Your ifcfg-wlan0 config with all the WIRELESS_ parameters
Any other tricks (or modified config files) you used to make it work ;)
note: I had it working (without WEP128 though) in LM 8.1 using the
"prism2_cs" module from http://www.linux-wlan.com/linux-wlan/
Unfortunately with LM8.2 I cannot compile it 'cos the pcmcia stuff
is scattered all over the place in the LM 8.2 kernel.
Cheers,
Fred
