[driverloader] Compaq NW8000 with integrated WLAN

[Janne Saarela]

Hi all,

I've succesfully installed Fedora to my new laptop but fail
to get wlan support running for the integrated WLAN device.
The Windows drivers are, of course, available from HP Web site [1].

I wonder if someone has been able to get it up?
Only similar references were available for Compaq NX7000 which,
I could imagine, has very similar hardware as NW8000.

The Driverloader indicates it cannot find the device
on the Web interface even though I have uploaded the
INF and corresponding SYS file. In fact, my /var/lib/driverloader
currently contains:

ar5211.sys
net5211.inf

BTW, when I activate the wlan card with the special button
on the laptop (and the blue light lits), /var/log/messages says:

Jan 16 09:08:11 localhost kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.2-1,

Jan 16 09:08:14 localhost last message repeated 2 times
Jan 16 09:08:15 localhost devlabel: devlabel service started/restarted

So it appears the device is somehow available as a USB device?
Is driverloader then a good approach at all?

I attach to this email dmesg and lspci outputs if
they help resolving my problem.

Regards,
Janne
