Hi,

I can't figure out how to add a device to the hotplug system.
I have a rlt8180 WLAN-Card working with ndiswrapper/wpa_supplicant. Now I want to hotplug it, I read the hotplug documentation but that was not really a help ...
For now I wrote a wlan start|stop script, but hotplug would be much better
Any hints would be appricated

thx
max

ok I got somewhat further

I manually added the lspci -n info to /lib/modules/2.4.28/modules.pcimap an added a /etc/hotplug/pci/ndiswrapper script that looks like:

#!/bin/sh

if [ "$ACTION" = "add" ] ; then
/usr/local/bin/wpa_supplicant -Bwdd -D ndiswrapper -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
/bin/sleep 15
/sbin/dhcpcd -d wlan0
fi
if [ "$ACTION" = "remove" ] ; then
/sbin/dhcpcd -k wlan0
/bin/killall wpa_supplicant
/bin/sleep 5
/sbin/rmmod ndiswrapper
fi


so when I plug the card in, the modul gehts loaded and the card is configured and connected. But when I eject it nothing happends, the modul is still loaded and wpa_supplicant still running.

The other problem is that on every reboot or depmod the re-genrated and thus the ndiswrapper entry is gone ...

If anyone could tell me how to permantly add ndiswrapper to the pcimap or why the remove part of my skript issend executed, it would be great help!

Thx
max
