Hi, I bought the supported hw revision of the d-link dwl-122 usb wireless adapter that is C1 (I was using E1) and with the compat-wireless-old-2009-12-11 it worked, but only with an unencrypted connection that is not very useful. I still had problems with the kernel when trying to establish a wpa2-based connection, so at the end I'm upgrading the kernel as you suggested. Thanks a lot for your help! -- Pedro Aguilar http://www.paguilar.org/blog On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 8:19 PM, Greg KH <greg@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 07:04:59PM +0200, Pedro Aguilar wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I built the rt2x00 as modules from compat-wireless-old-2009-12-11 >> since it has support for the kernel 2.6.23.17. > > Is that the kernel version you are stuck with? > > That's the issue, please upgrade to a newer, modern kernel version > (yours is more than 3 years old, before the hardware you are trying to > use was around.) > > good luck, > > greg k-h > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hotplug" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
