Orinoco_cs WiFi under kernel-2.6.30

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My classic Orinoco Gold PCMCIA card has not been working
under Fedora-11/KDE (with WEP) for some time.
Does anyone have this card working under Fedora?
It works perfectly under Windows XP.

I see in /var/log/messages that
the firmware agere_sta_fw.bin cannot be found;
but if this file is in fact required
I don't understand why it is not provided with the orinoco_cs module?

Rather frighteningly, I read this remark from Dan Williams,
who seems to be one of the two orinoco_cs developers:
"Since the WE-18 support in orinoco is so new, 
I'm not really surprised that 
it could be failing for WEP or open networks."
