Hi,
I have a pci-card with a RTL8185 chip.
[01:07.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE
802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20)]
Base on a Debian Lenny with
kernel 2.6.30-rc5
wpasupplicant v0.6.9
wireless_tools 30
I can change some parameter on the card with iwconfig, for example the
channel, but every time I try to get the card to work, the kernel freeze.
Now I´m not sure, if this mailinglist is the right one, because it may be a
problem of the hardware, the kernel or some userland tools.
If you need any additional information, please ask me an I try to answer
asap.
Yes, this is the right list - a few things:
1) dmesg should show a few line of info, including a line like this:
wlan0: hwaddr XX:XX:XX:XX;XX:XX <chip_name> + <rf_type>
we need at least that line, and anything else that's relevant in dmesg.
Have a look in the appended file "dmesg_2009-05-25.txt" and it's not
wlan0, it's phy0.
I hope, I haven't cut off too much .
2) what do you mean by 'kernel freeze'?
There is no more reaktion, no change by pressing num-lock, caps-lock or
scroll-lock. No answer on a ping. What I didn't tested is the "magic SysRq".
The computer should work as a server, only with the minimalistic program
installt. So there is no X11
do you get a pile of cryptic messages before
No, just no reaktion.
Also, describe what exactly did you try to do, step by step.
After booting the system a call of the following line is enough:
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
-W -dd
The result is:

3) have you tried compat-wireless? compat-wireless is ahead of
2.6.30-rcX and occasionally have fixes to bugs which creeps into the
rc's..
OK, no I didn't tried the compat-wireless so far..
It will take a while, when I got an result of the change.
Thanks so long
