KERNEL REQUIREMENTS - Crypto Library ---------- -------- --------- ----- ----- --- -- - IPW2200 uses the WEP encryption and decryption algorimths provided by the Linux kernel. As such, in order to use WEP you must enable the Crypto library support (CONFIG_CRYPTO) and the following algorithms: ARC4 cipher algorithm (CONFIG_CRYPTO_ARC4) You also need to enable the following from Library routines: CRC32 (CONFIG_CRC32) |

CONFIGURING THE KERNEL ------------ ----- ----- ---- --- -- - You need to enable firmware loading The kernel must be configured to enable wireless capabilities (CONFIG_NET_RADIO=y). Failure to do this will result in the Wireless Tools (iwconfig, iwlist, etc.) not functioning. You can check if your kernel is configured with CONFIG_NET_RADIO by running: % grep CONFIG_NET_RADIO \ /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/linux/autoconf.h You should see the line: #define CONFIG_NET_RADIO 1 If you have to turn on CONFIG_NET_RADIO in your kernel configuration, make sure you also rebuild, install, and reboot to the new kernel image. For help or instructions on configuring and building the kernel please consult the documentation contained in your distribution. |
