I was just letting you know where the file moved to for auto-loading

I have used Atheros since (and would as a matter of choice), but it appears I never got around to updating the wiki (and I won't update it in the future because, basically, maintaining wikis is a lot of work). Further reading reveals inaccuracies in the current article. Madwifi requires an extra step when creating the interface: wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/SimpleAccessPoint IIRC you can do this in your modprobe or udev rules (preferable), or as a preup stage in /etc/conf.d/net IIRC a udev (??) rule is created automagically when you first create the interface and it's this you can edit to make it so that it automatically comes up as an AP, rather than in client mode. You state that However when I modprobe ath_pci nothing shows up, but the interface HAS come up - it's shown as wifi0 in the ifconfig output you post. I don't use WPA but when using WEP (which I would advise you to get working first) you then have to: ifconfig wifi0 up iwconfig wifi0 mode Master essid foobert channel 11 iwconfig wifi0 essid foobert channel 11 key aabbccdd (or, obviously, the equivalent in /etc/conf.d/net - this is well documented in /etc/conf.d/net.example) Anyway, Google madwifi master mode should give you plenty of fodder to get things up on a one-off basis using manual commands so that you can see it's working. You then just have to figure out how to integrate what you've learned into the Gentoo bootscripts - hopefully Google gentoo madwifi master mode will help. However my computer doesn't show a wireless network to connect too. I assume you mean your OTHER, client, computer by this. When posting problems it helps to be as explicit as possible - for example when posting the ifconfig output it would've been beneficial to post EVERYTHING you did in order to get there. Oh! Also, the great thing about the madwifi drivers is that you can great virtual APs - as long as they all have the same channel then you can have wifi0, wifi1 and wifi2 on the same card (just `wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi1 wlanmode ap wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi2 wlanmode ap`). You can run one of these open, one as WEP and (presumably) one as WPA, bridging the secure networks with your wired LAN (for best integration) and NATting the open network using iptables (so you can give clients free or filtered internet access without having to worry about them accessing LAN services. This is useful if you have a Nintendo DS, which doesn't support WPA). Please post back any problems. Stroller. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

I believe it's possible to compile wpa-supplicant with / without madwifi support, so you should check that. I'd also imagine it might be possible to compile madwifi with or without mastermode support, so you may need show that relevant kernel options have been compiled. I believe that ioctl errors are generally associated with trying to tell hardware to do stuff it can't do. So drivers may be the cause here and I would certainly expect `dmesg` to be more verbose. I would STRONGLY advise you to get the access-point working in master mode UNENCRYPTED before continuing to WEP or WPA configuration. Making *incremental* changes help isolate the problem. Finally, unlike some, I have no objection to top-posting. What pisses me off immensely is *changing* the quoting-method of the thread. If you are the first person to reply to a post then by all means top- post; subsequent replies top-posted may be logical and readable. But if someone has replied by bottom-posting then top-posting breaks the continuity of the message. I have to read one level of quoting at the top of the message and another level at the bottom.

[gentoo-user] Installation: help me set up my keyboard, please.
Hi, Gentoo,
I'm having a great time installing Gentoo, and everything's going
swimmingly, including having compiled a kernel, got networking working, I
can use a USB stick, .
Except I've hit a brick wall. I want to set up my console keyboard, so I
go to edit /etc/conf.d/keymaps, as described in the x86 Handbook.
That file says, after a temporary previous edit:
#
# Use KEYMAP to specify the default console keymap. There is a complete tree
# of keymaps in /usr/share/keymaps to choose from.
KEYMAP=uk
#
This is aggravatingly vague. I cannot find anything to tell me _HOW_ to
Use KEYMAP to specify Somehow, my current setting of uk seems
to find and load an appropriate keymap, perhaps
/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwerty/uk.map.gz.
So the question is how do I get the system to load up my own special
keymap, currently called boottime.keymap.gz on my Debian system? Where
must I write this file so that it gets loaded? Where do I find the
documentation telling where to write this file?
I've delved into /etc/init.d/keymaps (a runscript shell), but it
appears merely to use ${KEYMAP}. I cannot see how this script manages to
find a filename out of uk. Presumably the interpreter /sbin/runscript
runs the find command, somehow. But I can't find any documentation for
runscript.
So I'm stymied. It's a real jar after so much of the installation has
gone so smoothly, with otherwise excellent documentation, well above
average for a Linux distro.
How do I set my keyboard layout?
Thanks in advance for the help!

/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwerty/uk.map.gz.
KEYMAP is just a env var which holds the arguments for loadkeys. And for

If you need uk keyboard layout: your done :-)
So the question is how do I get the system to load up my own special

Keymaps are loaded with loadkeys. man loadkeys gives the glory details.
(there is also a hint how to set this as kernel keymap ;-))
It searches in /usr/share/keymaps for the string.
As you may have noticed all keymaps differ before the .map.gz. So it
should go smoothly, if you put your keymap in any folder, an appropiate
for sanity, and rename it to something unique, a la my-own-nifty.map.gz.
Test it with
# loadkeys my-own-nifty
