Subject: Re: Orinoco in 2.6.11, 2.6.12 and 2.6.13-rc4
hey folks,   I am running mepis with the 2.6.10 kernel and am trying to get the orinoco drivers patched with monitor mode.. anyone have some advise for me?
 
is there a synaptics module that will do it? or is there a newer kernel release with the drivers installed already.?
 
Please advise.

Hello,

I was asked to forward a description of a problem I have with the
Orinoco driver to
this list.

The driver works without any flaws in 2.6.11 (Slackware 10)!

The driver doesn't work in 2.6.12 and onwards. I haven't tried the
incremental releases
between 2.6.11 and 2.6.12.
I use a Zyxel ZyAIR B-100 PCMCIA card.   When I boot in 2.6.12+ the
Link led blinks "in
bursts" - usually a couple of short blinks, then a long, repeat.
Network traffic isn't
transmitted (ie. I cannot ping my access point/gateway).

I don't know what kind of debug messages to send.  I have attached:

- dmesg in 2.6.11 and 2.6.13-rc4
- lsmod of modules in 2.6.11 and 2.6.13-rc4

I'm ready to supply more - just ask!  :-)

Kind regards,
Brian
