Networking :: Atheros WLAN card do not work

Is your card seen? What does PCMCIA tool show? Use ident tab.
Is this an old lappy that does not support cardbus? Or an irq conflict? Need more information.

the ident tab shows:

Code Sample

Socket 0:
no product info available
Socket 1:
product info:"Atheros Communication, Inc.", "AR5001-0000-0000","Wireless LAN Reference Card","00"
manfid: 0x0271, 0x0012
function: 6 (network)

i have tried both sockets

more infos to the lappy: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:380Z

thank you again for spending your time

Your ident tab output is exactly the same lake me

Onyarian, thanks for letting us know.

mrmarley, this might mean an irq conflict. Take a look at

dmesg | grep -i irq

Also might try booting with the option pci=assign_busses

hmmm, thats the output with and without the option"pci=assign_busses"

Code Sample

dsl@box:~$ dmesg | grep -i irq
