I wanted to use KNetworkManager, so I switched from iwconfig to |
| 2 |
wpa_supplicant and now I can't connect to anything outside my local network. |
| 3 |
I don't know whether it's KNM's, NM's or wpa_supplicant's fault, and I have |
| 4 |
no idear how to find out... |
| 5 |
To get KNM working I did something like this (might have forgot something): |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Made my kernel (linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r4) look like this: |
| 8 |
[code] |
| 9 |
Networking ---> |
| 10 |
<*> Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack |
| 11 |
[*] Enable full debugging output |
| 12 |
<*> IEEE 802.11 WEP encryption (802.1x) |
| 13 |
<*> IEEE 802.11i CCMP support |
| 14 |
<*> IEEE 802.11i TKIP encryption |
| 15 |
<M> Software MAC add-on to the IEEE 802.11 networking stack |
| 16 |
[*] Enable full debugging output |
| 17 |
[/code] |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
and then: |
| 20 |
[code] |
| 21 |
echo "net-misc/dhcdbd" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords |
| 22 |
emerge dhcdbd dev-libs/dbus-qt3-old sys-libs/libunwind -av |
| 23 |
ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/dhcdbd/dhcdbd-1.14-r1.ebuild merge |
| 24 |
ebuild /usr/portage/dev-libs/libnl/libnl-1.0_pre6.ebuild merge |
| 25 |
ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/dhcdbd/dhcdbd-1.14-r1.ebuild merge |
| 26 |
ebuild /usr/portage/portage/net-misc/networkmanager- |
| 27 |
0.6.4_pre20061028-r1.ebuild merge |
| 28 |
rc-update add NetworkManager default |
| 29 |
rc-update add dhcdbd default |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
cd / |
| 32 |
wget |
| 33 |
http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/knetworkmanager/network-manager-kde_0.1-4_i386.deb |
| 34 |
// dpkg complains alot so i unpack myself |
| 35 |
ar x network-manager-kde_0.1-4_i386.deb |
| 36 |
tar -xvpf data.tar.gz |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
knetworkmanager |
| 39 |
[/code] |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
And knetworkmanager started. Now it's not able to connect to any of my |
| 42 |
wireless networks, although it lists everyone around here. And when it |
| 43 |
connects to a wired network I can't break out of my local network. Besides |
| 44 |
that, wired works if I do "dhcpcd eth0". |
| 45 |
Any ideas on how to find out what's wrong? |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
and btw: |
| 48 |
# lspci | grep -i network |
| 49 |
14:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network |
| 50 |
Connection (rev 05) |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Hope this isn't a too stupid question to ask. |
