Hello,
I've installed me a test version of your driverloader on my Debian:
uname -a
Linux warmbold.edvchl.de 2.4.25-1-686 #1 Tue Feb 24 10:55:59 EST 2004 i686
GNU/Linux
I've installed the driverloader_1.64_i386.deb.
First I was surprised, because all seems to work fine (no errors while the
installation).
But after I did the following iwconfig command:
iwconfig eth1 essid home channel 6 freq 2437M key 12:34:56:78:90 power period
65.535
with the following result:
eth1 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"home" Nickname:"unknown"
Mode:Managed Channel:0 Bit Rate=11Mb/s
RTS thr=1600 B Fragment thr=0 B
Encryption key:12345678... Security mode:open
Power Management period:0us mode:Unicast only received
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
I've then setup my eth0 device with ifconfig set a route...
But it seems, that my wlan card didn't send any signal?
Because of the fact, that kismet didn't receive any signal on my PC underlined
my opinion.
Have you any Idea what I can do, to get the card running?
