[driverloader] driverloader not working in mandrake 9, 2 with drakeconnect

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

we will try to configure manually your wireless interface. Please edit the 
file '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1'. Here is a sample of this 
file for Mandrake :

---
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Wireless
PEERDNS=yes
MODE=Managed
ESSID=C40079
#KEY=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
---

After that, you will be able to bring up and down the wireless interface using 
the following commands :

---
ifup eth1
ifdown eth1
---

If you require more assistance, send us the output of 'dumpdiag'. Type the 
following in a root shell:

# dldrconfig --dumpdiag

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt').
It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
