Hi everyone, I'm having a heck of a time trying to get wireless going on my laptop. I've tried so many things, I'm a bit dizzy and don't know where I've gone right or wrong.
First things first. lspci shows my wireless hardware as: 0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) I've tried to follow this guide: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_ipw3945 When I get to the point where it tells me to do modprobe ipw3945, I get a message (and since I added ipw3945d to the default runlevel, I also get this same message on boot) about not being able to find: chown '/sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw3945/00*/cmd' no such file or directory lsmod does not list the driver even though I emerged it and added it to the /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 file I tried doing a google on the above error message and one of the hits indicated that the person had the same problem, but at least had the ipw3945 directory in /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ I don't even have that. I have no idea what is going on here, so any help would be appreciated. And since I'm not really strong in networking, please lead me by the nose.
