Category: packages Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Stanislav Meduna (numo) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: wlan-ng scripts ignore module parameters Initial Comment: I am running a Bering wireless / wired router on an old 486 laptop with 5V-only PCMCIA socket. Some of the WLAN cards are buggy (e.g. the D-Link DWL-650) and need a module parameter to be able to work in this environment. As I historically have better experience with wlan-ng, I am using it. The problem is that there is no clean way to specify a module parameter to a prism_* module - the etc/network/if-pre-up.d/linux-wlan-ng_pre-up only does WLAN_MOD=prism2_cs ... if ! insmod $WLAN_MOD; then ... I hardcoded the parameter in the script, but I don't know Bering good enough to know whether there is a clean and consistent way to solve this (package configuration etc.). I have the feeling that not using modules.conf (in general) nor pcmcia autoloading of modules (in wlan-ng) can cause more troubles like this. Thanks for the good work - a few hours after learning that something like Bering exists I have a working setup. It is unbelievable what can be stuffed on one floppy :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=113751&aid=657449&group_id=13751 ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
