so... if it appears as a PCI card instead of a PCMCIA card, you might have issues :-/
modprobe aironet4500_cs
(thats the PCMCIA driver... never know)
[tommy@pickles net]$ ls -l aironet4500_*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14656 Dec 12 02:58 aironet4500_card.o
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 76676 Dec 12 02:58 aironet4500_core.o
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80296 Dec 12 02:58 aironet4500_proc.o
[tommy@pickles net]$ pwd
/lib/modules/2.4.18-19.8.0/kernel/drivers/net
modprobe aironet4500_core
modprobe aironet4500_card
modprobe aironet4500_proc
I am not sure what order to put them it though

Try running 'neat' from the command line. And see if it see's and installs the driver. We used it here on a Notebook with wireless network and it worked very well. It didn't install the driver from Linux install, but running neat fixed that for us.

My machine was shipped with an internal "Cisco Aironet Mini-PCI Wireless Card by IBM." I thought the Aironet was a pretty widely supported card under Linux but I am having some trouble configuring it. The system seems to acknowledge that the card is there: if I /sbin/lspci I get 02:02.0 Network controller: AIRONET Wireless Communications: Unknown device a504 If I try to add the wireless device however using the network configuration tool it doesn't seem to recognize that this is a network/wireless device ... the wizard menus only allow me to select "Other wireless card." I've tried this using several different drivers (Cisco/Aironet 802.11 wireless, Aironet 4500 PCI) with little results. Anyone out there have any words of wisdom? thanks, mg ###################################################################### Attention: This e-mail message is privileged and confidential.
