[Emc-users] Laptop Pcmcia wireless not working
I'm just started to use emc and I have cut out just a few things. I was surprised that it worked fine even though it is a 700mhz 128ram... and a laptop at that. I had ubuntu 8.04 installed and later ran the script to install emc. One thing that is a little annoying. I have pcmcia wireless card that works fine in regular ubuntu. But when I run the rtai kernel version that the script generated, my wireless no longer works. Does the pcmcia or certain wireless drivers get disabled by default in the install? - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

Greg www.distinctperspectives.com I'd suggest as the easiest way to fix this is to buy a pair of Linksys WRT54GL's. Set up one as an access point and the other as a client. You could probably use a directional antenna on each side and shoot through your walls, saving any wiring. I tend to use these: http://www.wallacecompany.com/biquad/ http://martybugs.net/wireless/biquad/ With OpenWRT firmware these WRT54GL's (and NSLU2's) become very handy which seems kind of a waste to run as a simple AP or client, but everything seems to be priced the same, so why not use them? In the past, I've used a sheet of aluminum bent to a parabolic shape mounted the router so that the stock antenna was at the focus. This seems to work very well. I had mine outdoors, so I had to occasionally change the garbage bag protecting them.
