*** Bug 256350 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** If you used only oss install source this is INVALID, because device don't have oss driver+firmware+userspace daemon and without this he responses as network card without wlan extension This will be fixed with new kernel driver (I don't know when) What's your installation source? Installation source is openSuSE 10.3 alpha 5 DVD as well as download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ I fixed it for my installation by using if [ "$WIRELESS" != yes -a "$HWD_DRIVER" != ipw3945 ]; then instead of if [ "$WIRELESS" != yes -a "$HWD_INTERFACETYPE_0" != wlan ]; then If this is "invalid" (i.e. based on the wrong assumption it should be working) then there should at least be a notice in the YaST Network Devices setup to that end. >> If this is "invalid" (i.e. based on the wrong assumption it should be working)

Now I think better description is WONTFIX (it's bug but won't be fixed)
but this one will be fixed by upstream (but only for this one model not general).
Or I can assign it as DUPLICATE of similar bugs ;-(.
Problem is that I can't write anything there (in YaST dialog) because device without kernel driver is recognized as ethernet card. I disscussed this with kernel people and we can create some database of such devices but probably not for 10.3
Can I see "hwinfo --netcard" and "hwinfo --wlan"?

Here you go.
But this _IS_ recognized as wireless card and driver is loaded. Changed status to major (Major loss of function) For finding problem, can you attach please yast logs, /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-* files and output from "getcfg $configuration_file"? Created attachment 149060 [details]

/etc/sysconfig/network files
Not sure what you address here: "getcfg $configuration_file", output from getcfg eth1 is: workstation6l:/home/cjp # getcfg eth1HWD_HWDESC="eth1"; HWD_HWDESCTYPE="interface"; HWD_INTERFACE_N="1"; HWD_INTERFACE_0="eth1"; HWD_INTERFACEPATH_0="/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:01:00.0/net/eth1"; HWD_INTERFACETYPE_0="net"; HWD_ID="00:13:02:18:12:ac"; HWD_BUS_N="1"; HWD_BUSNAME_0="pci"; HWD_BUSID_0="0000:01:00.0"; HWD_VENDORID="0x8086"; HWD_PRODUCTID="0x4222"; HWD_VENDORSUBID="0x8086"; HWD_PRODUCTSUBID="0x1001"; HWD_DRIVER="ipw3945"; HWD_CONFIG_N="0"; HWD_DEVICEPATH="/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:01:00.0"; export HWD_HWDESC HWD_HWDESCTYPE HWD_INTERFACE_N HWD_INTERFACE_0 HWD_INTERFACEPATH_0 HWD_INTERFACETYPE_0 HWD_ID HWD_BUS_N HWD_BUSNAME_0 HWD_BUSID_0 HWD_VENDORID HWD_PRODUCTID HWD_VENDORSUBID HWD_PRODUCTSUBID HWD_DRIVER HWD_CONFIG_N HWD_DEVICEPATH; What about Kill switch ? (see dmesg) getcfg is broken. I'm currently working on that, but it will still take some time. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 283724 *** |
On a FSC Amilo Si1520 with Intel IPW3945 wireless card running openSuSE 10.3 alpha 5 the wireless card is not set up when using "Traditional Method with ifup" The script is called an then exits from if [ "$WIRELESS" != yes -a "$HWD_INTERFACETYPE_0" != wlan ]; then info_mesg "$HWD_HWDESC is not wireless, exiting" exit 0 fi as $HWD_INTERFACETYPE_0 is set to "net" instead of "wlan"
