Tacksam för tips om hur jag får igång ett D-Link DWL-G650 med Atheros chip. I Ubuntu och Kubuntu fungerar det direkt utan åtgärd men tyvärr inte i Zenwalk.
iwconfig hittar bara lo och eth0 - no wireless extensions

Atheros chipsets need the madwifi drivers :).

Thanks. I can't find the package. Is there a build for Zenwalk or can I use Slackware's package

You'll have to compile it against the kernel.

instruktioner för att bygga madwifi-modulen hittar du här : http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/Slackware

Se till att ha källkoden för kernel till hands ( netpkg kernelsource ) innan du börjar.

Madwifi krånglade lite för mig i början och efter mycket felsökning kom jag fram till att det var ett fel i rc.wireless, om man använder WEP-kryptering. Det finns ett rättat rc.wireless-script att hämta på http://www.slackware.com/~alien/rc_scripts/rc.wireless

jag har vid ett tillfälle postat mina instälningar här http://support.zenwalk.org/index.php/topic,4108.0.html de kan oxå vara till stor hjälp.

Lycka till.

Jag har inte lyckats få madwifi att fungera med "wifi-radar", för mig räcker det att kunna hitta min egna router, och wifi-radar är mest tänkt för de som släpar runt sin laptop till hotspots eller snålsurfar på grannen.

If you look in tips and tricks and glimpse through my howto on madwifi/wpa you can probably find out all you need to know. (you can easily just not do the wpa parts if you are not using WPA, although i do recommend it!)
