Hi!
Driverloader is installed and the modules looks good on my SuSE 9.0 Centrino
laptop. (ACER 661Lci)
iwlist scan shows:
linux:~ # iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Scan completed :
Cell 01 - Address: 00:04:75:63:C5:C3
ESSID:"TWSAP"
Mode:Managed
Frequency:2.412GHz

Encryption key:on

Bit Rate:11Mb/s
But when I try to do :
linux:~ # iwconfig wlan0 key xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Key substitued)
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
linux:/tmp # dldrconfig --info
Linuxant DriverLoader for Wireless LAN devices, version 1.41

So I can not set the key, and since I can not set the key I can not get the
network working.
Any ideas to what I'm doing wrong?
regards birger....
