Re: [PLUG] dell 1390 wireless with mandriva..

Wireless is a new animal for me.. :-)   I can't pretend there is a
fault with the wire or at other end :-)  [anyway...] my wireless is
**not** working even though there is wireless signal.

dmesg shows following...
=
ndiswrapper version 1.21 loaded (preempt=no,smp=yes)
ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5 (Broadcom,11/02/2005, 4.10.40.0) loaded

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
=

So I think there is problem that I need to fix...

Any idea what could be wrong...?

I have kept settings as what came on default i.e. Managed mode and essid any
There are bunch of other things which are left blank under wireless
tab.  TCP/IP setting are done and are *said* to be correct.

Thanks in advance...

I think that the card is properly detected and working. Check out the
results of 'iwconfig'.

Try setting up an Adhoc network :-

iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc
iwconfig wlan0 essid foo

Using ifconfig give ip address to wlan0.

Perform similar settings on another machine, give different ip-address and
try to ping between the two.

I dont have idea about the encryption schemes for Managed mode, but I think
using iwconfig you can do all the settings.

Devendra Laulkar.

You need a initrd and LVM enabled.

Google for initrd / mkinitrd.

Re: [PLUG] wired gentoo 2007.0 installer behavior

As a side note, why not write out the configuration ?

$ man interfaces

The least you can do it write out a small script and put it in rcS.d.

$ zcat /usr/share/doc/sysvinit/README.runlevels.gz | less

Re: [PLUG] dell 1390 wireless with mandriva..

2007-05-22 Thread

Great

your suggestion got me thinking again and i used
/sbin/ifup wlan0
to get wireless interface up and then down as a part of checking.
After chaning making it ad-hoc and penguin [instead of foo]

I think now with this I am able to get ifce as I can see the following
output of /sbin/ifconfig
=
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:19:7D:BD:72:B5
 inet addr:192.168.10.51  Bcast:192.168.10.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
 Interrupt:19 Memory:d020-d0204000
=

eth0 and lo are also there but I just cut them out of this output...

with kwifimanager if I try to scan for network, it returns that
nothing found.  Maybe... maybe I have a question... should i be
changing the frequency of my wifi card assuming it can be changed from
settings.

I also have following question... my wifi light does not become on,
and link ready message does not come under dmesg but link not
ready no more comes on so it looks like interface is also UP.

your suggestion of setting up anothe unit with same settings is good
but right now I do not have another unit to setup.  So I will inquire
about any settings with admin who has that wifi router.  Last time I
inquired the response was **automatic** :-)  Oh..! you don't have to
do any setting under windows, just choose automatic for most options
under windows and everything will work, give static IP and your TCP/IP
settings seem correct

{Thanks for stirring my grey cells into thinking on this and for
valuable suggestions.}
