Is wpa_supplicant installed?
It is, and I tried enabling it as well, but it spews a bunch of errors
at boot time and exits. It's apparent I need to edit
/etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant, but if I'm *not* using ndiswrapper I
don't know what to use in the DRIVERS= assignment. So that's
chkconfig'd off again.
Try:
DRIVERS=wext
This actually worked better for me than DRIVERS=ndiswrapper when I use
ndiswrapper. I think it tells wpa_supplicant that the kernel driver
supports the generic wireless extensions. As an example, I can get
WPA-PSK authentication to work with DRIVERS=wext but not with
ndiswrapper even though I'm running ndiswrapper.
I also did some googling and it looks like quite a bit of bcm43xx work
has gone into kernels after 2.6.18. No idea if these changes have been
back ported by upstream to the current 2.6.18 kernel. I have some
friends visiting now but I'm planning on giving bcm43xx a whirl again
with the 2.6.21 kernel.
Cheers,
Dave
