This card is really beginning to bug me now!
Anyway, I'm running driverloader-1.22pre1 (which was sent to me
yesterday in an email to try and solve some problems I was having). It
loads fine, picks up on the card etc. However, any attempt to use the
card returns nothing.
For instance, iwlist eth1 scan returns:
eth1 Failed to read scan data : No data available
iwconfig reports correctly on the card, but cannot be used to set
frequency / channel / essid / anything really. Some of them (like essid)
fail silently, while others (like channel) are more verbose:
output of iwconfig eth1 channel 1:
Error for wireless request "Set Frequency" (8B04) :
SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.
So, does anyone have any advice on how to make use of this card? Has
anyone else got one working in any laptop, or, in particular, in a Dell
laptop?
Oh, but to report back, 1.22pre1 now compiles and loads cleanly on
2.4.22 aswell, but with the same problems (for my card). I'm testing
everything in 2.6.0-test9.
