This does not work with the x86_64 default kernel, as well. Show stopper for me. the rpms on madwifi.org/suse/ are not up to date with the 11.0 GA version yet. btw, does the kernel built-in ath5k driver perhaps work for you already? I see there is to wait until they put the up to date rpms on madwifi. Will it take long? I didn't understand the point about the kernel built-in ath5k driver. *) Do you suggest to plug the wireless card and see if it works just like this? (on openSUSE 10.3 it didn't work like this). If it won't work I can still install later the madwifi rpms or the system will still use a wrong driver/kernel for the card? *) Or do you suggest to install something else? you could just try to plug it in and see if it works, yes. the 11.0 kernel has a atheros driver in, but its not complete yet, so it might not work for your card. I have tried but it does not work. Leds do not blink as they should do and it is not able to connect to my access point, since it does not see it! So, conclusion, there is to wait up to date rpms on madwifi? Thank you. Created attachment 223710 [details]
new RPMs
I have managed to compile myself the MADWIFI source.
You can find here the up to date RPMs.
I already filed a bug on madwifi.org yesterday: http://madwifi.org/ticket/2011 Updated packages are available at madwifi.org. Closing as FIXED. |
I wanted to install my Netgear WG511T on my new openSUSE 11.0 as I did before on openSUSE 10.3. After adding the MADWIFI repository I selected: 1) madwifi 2) madwifi-kmp-pae For the second package there is a critical problem: #### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2008-06-21 15:56:12 #### nothing provides kernel(vmlinux) = 1f623d7fcfa1b112 needed by madwifi-kmp-pae-0.9.4_2.6.25_26-1.i586 [ ] do not install madwifi-kmp-pae-0.9.4_2.6.25_26-1.i586 #### YaST2 conflicts list END ### I choose pae because I have Linux 2.6.25.5-1.1-pae i686 But it is also the same if choosing default or any other type of kernel. So it is not possible to proceed! What to do now? Thank you
