I've had the same problem here; using a 3com OfficeConnect (3CXJK10075 I |
| 25 |
think). I've just rebuild my laptop and used 0.1_pre20050809 and it |
| 26 |
didn't work. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I tried different kernel settings, different versions of madwifi-driver |
| 29 |
and madwifi-tools, along with wireless-tools and wpa_supplicant. In the |
| 30 |
end I had to remove all the modules (rm -Rf /lib/modules) and reinstall |
| 31 |
all the modules before rebuilding wireless-tools, madwifi-driver, |
| 32 |
madwifi-tools in that order. |
