FreeBSD wireless difficulty
Hello, I had been having difficulty recently with getting my fbsd 4.9 machine to connect to my linksys home wireless router and because of the problem, had to upgrade to fbsd 5.2.1 and noticed more activity out of my wireless card. The computer is a Toshiba Satellite 2405-S221 with a Avaya Wireless PCMCIA card using the wi drivers to run it. I'm able to associate with the router at home and am able to ping it without a problem but I can not browse webpages and the like. I also have bsd-airtools installed and have used dstumbler, the only problem being is that the program doesn't see my wireless card. Any tips or suggestions?

Wireless client problems
Hi, I'm currently running fbsd 4.9 on a Toshiba Satellite 2405-S221. The problem I am having is that after I install and configure the wireless card, I observe no activity between the card and the cpu. I know for certain that my pccard slots are fully functional and that fbsd is loading the appropriate drivers, but I am puzzled with the lack of activity. To setup the client I used the example from the FBSD handbook, 20.3.3.4.1 minus all the WEP encryption crap: ifconfig wi0 ssid ssid goes here inet ip goes here netmask blah I choose the IP right off the top of my head, I simply make sure that the IP is not being used by any other machines on the network. Here is my output from dmesg: FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE #0: Tue Jun 29 09:10:13 EST 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL Timecounter i8254 frequency 1193182 Hz CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 Mobile CPU 1.60GHz (1594.84-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = GenuineIntel Id = 0xf24 Stepping = 4 Features=0x3febf9ffFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM real memory = 268238848 (261952K bytes) avail memory = 255270912 (249288K bytes) Preloaded elf kernel kernel at 0xc0597000.

Trying to install Flash... BUT
S, I am on a Toshiba Satellite 2405-S221 with FBSD 4.9 running KDE 3.1.4 and attempting to get a Flash plugin working.. So I goto the HowTo at KDE's site at: http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/konqueror-flash.php and follow the directions to the line.. but nothing is still going for me. I decide to try it again a few times and still nothing until a brilliant stroke of genius tells me to check my KDE version.. the HowTo calls for KDE- 3.2.3 aduhh, well I finally follow the first step and pkg_delete 3.1.4 and I try to install 3.2.3 from the ports collection. The install finds all the dependencies except for kwalletbackend, then attempts to install it when this warning comes up... Dependency warning: used OpenSSL version contains known vulnerabilities Please update or define either WITH_OPENSSL_BASE or WITH_OPENSSL_PORT *** Error Code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs3. *** Error Code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/kdebase3.

Problems with Kuser
I am running FBSD 4.9 with KDE 3.1.2 on a Toshiba Satellite 2405-S221. Problem arose today when using kuser while under root and adding a user with the program. I shut down x windows system and kde and shutdown the laptop and returned to it later that night to find out my password for root was wrong, even my password for my non-root account was wrong. The only user that I was able to log in under was the one I setup with kuser.

Fresh Installing FreeBSD 5.0 Release
I was currently getting help from a person for getting my wireless pc card working on my laptop when we both came to the conclusion that my kernel source had either not been installed, or was hiding very well. I wasn't able to get a hold of the original install cd so I used a 5.0 release from a family members collection. I attempted to remove 4.9 and cleanly install 5.0 onto the laptop but ran into some interesting errors and it has put me in quite a bind. The drive for which I'm wanting to install FreeBSD on has been whipped clean but the 5.0 install cd hangs up when loading device drivers for the kernel. At the moment I'm stuck on what to do myself, if there is a way to get the drive formatted so that I can try a clean install of 5.0 that would be great, but if not, 4.9 installed very cleanly.

Miscellaneous Problems
Hi, I'm a 2 week old FreeBSD 4.9 user who has never used UN*X in my entire life and I was running into a few problems that I haven't been able to find help with. I have been attempting to get my pcmcia wireless card running on my laptop, I have identified the driver to install (wi), but am quite clueless on how to do so. Any help would be appreciated.
