Michael,

- Did you install madwifi-ng-modules-2.6.15-486-voyage_0.svnr1611.20060527-1+3.0-1_i386.deb as well? - You may also need http://www.voyage.hk/dists/unstable/madwifi/madwifi-ng-tools_0.svnr1611.20060527-1_i386.deb
- Can you show me "dmesg | grep svn"?

Punky,

The new experiential kernel you built below (3.01) does a nice job at loading the serial_cs module for the particular PCMCIA modem I am testing:

cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: excluding 0xa0000000-0xa00fffff
   pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0
   cardmgr[1777]: socket 0: Sierra Wireless AC850 3G Network Adapter R1


I still have a few issues to work out on my own, including what follows:

   cardmgr[1777]: executing: 'modprobe serial_cs'
   serial_cs: serial8250_register_port() at 0x03e8, irq 11 failed
   cardmgr[1777]: get dev info on socket 0 failed: No such device


But my real question about the new experimental kernel is, that my ath0 support seems to have gone away (aetheros madwifi, which worked very well in the stock voyage 2.0 kernel I used before). I now get something like this on an ifup ath0:

   ifup ath0
   run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/madwifi exited with return code 1
   Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
       SET failed on device ath0 ; No such device.
   SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
   ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
   SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
   SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
   ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
   ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
   Failed to bring up ath0.


Do I need to change out some madwifi tools to make it happen with this kernel?

- Michael

voyage-base.etch.tar.gz is just a bootstrapped version of etch, it is not voyage and is not ready to use.

An experimental kernel with serial_cs module can be found in http://alpha.voyage.hk/contrib/punkytse/test-kernel/
