jubilee33 Posted August 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I just tried the other driver and I met with the same problem. I got "hardware present, driver installed" and everything but when I actually tried to bring up wlan0, there was "no such device" again. The funny thing is that I saw wlan0 was brought up in startup (verbose mode). How was that possible? I tried using the native driver but installing it was such a lengthy process and I failed more miserably than with ndiswrapper. What should I do next? Am I completely hopeless with this card?

taupist Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/sh...ad.php?t=476198 I don't know why this continues to be such a big problem. A lot of the newest distro's have IPW working out of the box, Belenix and PCLinuxOS to name just two. I've been running an Inspiron 6000 with IPW2200 for over a year. Started with the Cooker version of Mdv2006 (downloaded it by accident). Anyway, wireless is the least of my problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
