I also have problems with my orinoco cards:
On my Bering RC2 firewall with Orinoco Silver card with nightly
syslog rotation:
# grep -c "eth5: Tx error, status 1 (FID=" /var/log/syslog
2187
My setup is:
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22
Vadem VG-469 ISA-to-PCMCIA at port 0x3e2 ofs 0x00
pcmcia-cs 3.1.33
Lucent/Orinoco/Agere Silver card: manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
orinoco.c, orinoco_cs.c v0.09b
Lucent/Agere firmware version 6.16 (if reported correctly,
might be 8.10)
Using WEP in Ad-Hoc Mode
Communicating with one identical card using firmware v8.10 and
orinoco.c 0.11b with kernel pcmcia drivers in 2.4.19-pre10
and a second SMC 2632W using the prism2_cs.o module in
wlan-ng 0.1.13.
I started trying to fix it a few weeks ago, but after making it
worse with new drivers (probably because I botched the compilation
or config), I decided to leave it alone until I have more time to
experiment.
If you haven't already, you may want to check out the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] archives[1] and the pcmcia-cs mailing list
archives[2].
David Gibson, the author of the orinoco drivers, is active on the
former. The postings I have seen give me the impression that the
orinoco.o/orinoco_cs.o driver is not very stable yet and that Dave
is still trying to work out some of the bugs. IIRC, there is even
a fairly long thread between David and someone working on ARM
patches that seems to discuss the same problem the three of us are
having.
I can't justify moving it up to the top of my priority list right
now, but I would be happy to provide any details you need from my
setup to help you isolate and fix the problem. Good luck finding
a solution and please let us all know if succeed.
