!!SOLVED!!

Thanks Mikshaw! :cool:

One of my drivers Loads as a dsl is called rt2xxx.dsl
I'm on a Frugal install and have rt2xxx.dsl auto loading,
after rt2xxx.dsl loads this list of stuff has to be done at cmmd line:

depmodscript.sh
depmod
modprobe rt2500
myiwconfig.sh

is there some way to get this to happen automatically?
i tried bootlocal.sh but seems the parts that run fast try to go before the parts that run slow, and its essential that they run in the order i listed.

Thanks again for any help.

try chaining them:
depmodscript.sh && depmod && modprobe rt2500 && myiwconfig.sh

Ah cool thanks that looks like just the ticket.

I had done something a bit less elegant and just wrote several different scripts one calling upon the next, chaining looks much better.

Did you make the rt2500 dsl, or is it in the repositories?

If it's yours, can I have a copy?

I made this module and it is in the release_candidate area.
It is not an extension yet. I wanted feedback, as I don't have such device. It is only a single module, so I would suspect only an insmod rt2500 would be needed and not modprobe. The difference between these commands is for loading of other dependent modules, which there are none. So, I would think a simple insmod rt2500 and then apply your iwconfig commands. Still waiting feeback. You can grab it here
copy it into /home/dsl and load it like this -
sudo insmod /home/dsl/rt2500.o
Then use the iwconfig gui with ra0 instead of eth0
Please let me know.
