The last 400 lines were only the information of the system going to sleep and wake up several times.
I have looked through your log, and it is the same as with your lspci and lsusb output: If I wouldn't know better, I would say there is no wireless adapter present in your system. I don't know why Linux doesn't find it, so I can't help here anymore, sorry.
Well I am using a pci card (D-link AirPlus), and it is working fine except that when I come out of sleep mode it quits. No sign of it when I use
Code:
ifconfig -a
The only way to get it to work again is to rip out the card and stick it back into the computer (which realy seems like a bad idea to me). After that, it works great.
Any sugestions would be great.
Update: I left the computer alone for awhile and then came back to it later. I was messing around and found that the wireless option was turned off in the bios . MINOR PROBLEM!
