Finally, I emerged madwifi-ng and the WLAN card works. Add if I do the cmd |
| 2 |
manually: |
| 3 |
# /etc/init.d/net.ath0 start |
| 4 |
the interface can get IP address from dhcp normally. But when I add the net. |
| 5 |
ath0 to the |
| 6 |
runlevel default and reboot, it cannot obtain the IP information with |
| 7 |
dhcpcd... That means |
| 8 |
I have to run the network restart script every time the system boots... Can |
| 9 |
you give me some |
| 10 |
advices about this? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
# cat /etc/conf.d/net |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
# This blank configuration will automatically use DHCP for any net.* |
| 15 |
# scripts in /etc/init.d. To create a more complete configuration, |
| 16 |
# please review /etc/conf.d/net.example and save your configuration |
| 17 |
# in /etc/conf.d/net (this file :]!). |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) |
| 20 |
# dhcp_eth0="nonis nontp" |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
modules=( "iwconfig" ) |
| 23 |
key_xxxxxx="[1] cccc-cccc-cccc-cccc-cccc-cccc-cc key [1] enc restricted" |
| 24 |
preferred_aps=( "xxxxxx" ) |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
config_ath0=( "dhcp" ) |
| 27 |
dhcp_ath0="nonis nontp" |
| 28 |

Though ath5k driver will eventually replace the madwifi driver |
| 45 |
according to the development team, surely you can use your current |
| 46 |
2.6.24 kernel with madwifi-ng package in portage. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
However, as Dirk has mentioned, the driver may or may not work with |
| 49 |
your card. So you may have to give it a try. |

If the "How to install madwifi" gentoo wiki page is what you are |
| 55 |
reffering to, it may be a little bit out of date. You can take a look |
| 56 |
on madwifi.org's web page for an up-to-date requirements. |
