Hi all,

I´m already four days trying to make work a Symbol Spectrum 24 wifi card
in my Compaq M300 laptop running Kubuntu 7.04. I need some help with it.
The card is recognized. At the console I get

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ pccardctl ident 
Socket 0: 
product info: "Symbol", "Spectrum24 WLAN Adapter", "SLA
V4.65/1.00/10229550-00022201-FW: EU ", "TSW:none" 
manfid: 0x014d, 0x0801 
function: 6 (network)

but at KInfoCentr the PCMCIA port is empty.
After many searches and tryings, I found at[ 1]( where my card is the LA
3021-101 at the upper row) the driver is the Wavelan driver. However I´m
getting

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo modprobe wavelan
FATAL: Error inserting wavelan
(/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wavelan.ko):
Input/output error

I tried also with

$ sudo modprobe wavelan_cs
$ lsmod | grep wavelan 
wavelan_cs 30344 0 
pcmcia 38972 1 wavelan_cs 
pcmcia_core 42128 4 wavelan_cs,pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic

But I´m still getting

$ iwconfig 
lo no wireless extensions. 

eth0 no wireless extensions. 

sit0 no wireless extensions.

I tried the card in other laptop running XP and it works. I also noted
at the comments column at[ 1]¨ 100mW; works with Orinoco driver¨. What
does 100nW mean?
 
Somebody has a clue?

Regards,

Julian
