wirechief Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I am using MCN-live beta 3 to report my test with Mandriva 2010 Beta 1 , it booted from a USB stick i created with MandrivaÅ› seed, I had checked the md5sum before putting it on the stick. I tried using the configurator icon for network and wifi connections however it refused to located my essid, I tried once more using drakconnect but its basically the same program. I am attaching log files for review by those who might be interested. On MCN-live am using: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.31.12-desktop586-1mnb #1 SMP Tue Jan 26 02:59:40 EST 2010 i686 Intel® Atom CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz GNU/Linux relavent lspci for Network: 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc.

willie Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Is the w-lan enabled in the bios of the netbook, he w-lan button on the right is it enabled. I should work out of the box, at least on my aspireone110. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wirechief Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I should of added that MCN-live kris connects and worked the very first try, thats why i was surprised that mandriva 2010 beta didnt work, does your aspireone110 have the same wifi chipsets ? this error from drakconnect might give someone clues: /usr/lib/libDrakX/interactive/gtk.pm line 522. Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_cell_view_set_cell_data: assertion `cell_view->priv->displayed_row != NULL' failed at /usr/lib/libDrakX/interactive/gtk.pm line 522.

wirechief Posted April 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 I have tried this on my other netbook and its working, so now a retest is in order, I burned the .iso to a CD and it is working from there, I do notice there are two menu selections the first is configure network, perhaps i tried the second first and thats why it was failing, i will have to review this....
