Sorry, meant to include it: Kernel is 2.6.27.7 I thought about trying the prism54 driver but was unable to download the firmware from the links in the P54 site. No matter what I did I kept getting the html page back as a text file to be saved, very weird. -----Original Message----- From: Pavel Roskin [mailto:proski@xxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, March 21, 2010 11:36 PM To: Steven Wheeler Cc: linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Problems with Netgear WG511v1 PCMCIA On Sun, 2010-03-21 at 21:45 -0500, Steven Wheeler wrote: > I am attempting to resurrect my old Toshiba Portege 3110CT laptop > Installed Slackware 12.2 on it and all is working well except for my > WG511v1.

Since you are using a softmac driver, and you kernel is likely old, you have basically two options. 1) Try the fullmac driver (prism54). 2) Try compat-wireless. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
