WPC11 V3.0 on PCM-3110 PC/104 adapter
Hello Everyone,
I am trying to bring up a linux system on an Advantech 5820 SBC. The root filesystem is loosely based on Fedora Core 5, trimmed down to fit on a 512M Compact Flash. It boots and comes up clean in run level 3. Networking is fine through the onboard ethernet connection ( Realtek 8139 ). So much for the background. I am now trying to get wireless working. I purchased a PC/104 PCMCIA adapter ( PCM-3110 ) from advantech. The wireless card is a Linksys WPC11 ver 3.0. I found that the PC/104 module runs a i82365 compatable chip. modprobe i82365 yields the following in dmesg: ----------------------------------------------------- intel isa pcic probe vadem vg-468 isa-to-pcmcia at port 0x3e0 ofs 0x00 2 sockets host options [0] : none host options [1] : none isa irqs (scanned ): 3,4,7,9,10,14 status change on irq 14 ----------------------------------------------------- Shortly thereafter I get : pcmcia_socket0: timeout after reset pccardctl info gives : PRODID_1="" PRODID_2="" PRODID_3="" PRODID_4="" MANFID=0000,0000 FUNCID=255 PRODID_1="" PRODID_2="" PRODID_3="" PRODID_4="" MANFID=0000,0000 FUNCID=255 Also, if I remove the WPC11 card and replace it with a PCMCIA CF adapter, pccardctl info gives the same output. I would think that at this point pccardctl should recognize something is plugged regardless of whether the correct driver ( orinoco_cs ) is up and running. Any thoughts on what other than the i82365 module is required to get PCMCIA up and running ? Thanks in advance for your help |
I looked at this thread earlier today when I was trying to find the answer to a similar problem of mine. Since it is version 3 of the WPC11 which uses the prism2 chipset, you can use the linux-wlan-ng package to configure the card. I installed the linux-wlan-ng package, rebooted the computer (because of the kernel module) and it automatically started the eth1 interface with wireless extension.
