[Greg gave me the hint to ask here. Please CC me on relevant replies. No need to further include him, unless this should go up on the "DriverNeeded" page later I presume.] Sitting here a pc card wireless land adapter. id 0x0156, 0x0003, which probably makes it an Agere card. cardctl info says: "Wireless PC Card Model 0110" We bought it quite a while ago under the tradename Lancom Airlancer MC-11 from Lancom Systems. http://www.lancom-systems.de/AirLancer-MC-11b.117.0.html Background: We bought it because we thought it has a supported chipset based on the old orinocco driver. The vendor announces "linux" supported, but this turned out to be only a driver for Linux 2.4.x. Some old stuff (with picture) can be found at: ftp://ftp.lancom.de/AirLancer/AirLancer-11/AirLancer-MC-11 this seems to be Free Software under GNU GPLv2 even. We could not get it to work with 2.6 and searching the web gave us only reports that it does not work with kernel 2.6.x. See http://questier.com/howto.html#Proxim (the "local copy" links might haver newer source code) I've grepped the kernel sources (2.6.24) to try to find the id in a driver or the source code comment "Agere" to see if source code was taken in from the 2.4. driver. To no prevail. Even pages like http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Linux.Wireless.drivers.802.11b.html do not help me. So I cannot really say: is there a driver which should work with this card in Linux 2.6.x and just missed the manufacturer id to recognise it? Where did the old Free Software code go? Was it never ported to 2.6? Thanks, Bernhard [Please CC me on relevant replies.] -- Managing Director - Owner: www.intevation.net (Free Software Company) Germany Coordinator: fsfeurope.org.
