Subject: orinoco_cs on linuxppc_2_4/linux-2.4-benh
Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2002 21:38:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ofjs8ju5.fsf@paradoxical.net> (raw)


I've decided to update the kernel on my laptop (Lombard 400),
currently it's running 2.4.11-pre4-ben0, which seems to work fine,
except I can't get usbmidi working with it.

usbmidi works (afaict) with the current 2.4.18-pre4(-ben0)? trees from
either linuxppc_2_4 or Ben's tree.  However, both of them seem to
break my wireless card.  The link to the base (an airport) appears to
be good, however no packets are transmitted/received over the link:

with the newer kernels:

iwconfig:
eth1      IEEE 802.11-DS  ESSID:"huber_net"  Nickname:"mystic"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412GHz  Access Point: 00:60:1D:1D:3E:0E
          Bit Rate:1Mb/s   Tx-Power=15 dBm   Sensitivity:1/3
          Retry limit:4   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:15/92  Signal level:-74 dBm  Noise level:-89 dBm

Anyone else have this working with current kernels?

with the older kernel:

iwconfig:

          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412GHz  Access Point: 00:60:1D:1D:3E:0E
