I cant get my wireless chip to recognize my wireless driver in the OS
Hi,
I recently wiped my hard drive and rebooted Linux mint9 from the disk. Afterwards my computer wouldn't recognize my wireless driver...I don't know what to do I've :x rebooted the OS twice now and still don't have wireless connection, and further more the wireless configuration wont allow me to enable it ,although I can see through my system bench and profiler that it is there.The hardware driver scanner never found anything so it seems that I'm missing a driver?.... I'm not sure whats going on or what to do. Can some one please help me??... I used this command to find out what kind of wireless chip I had and these are the results... lspci -vnn | grep -a4 -i net samantha@samantha ~ $ lspci -vnn | grep -a4 -i net 16-bit legacy interface ports at 0001 Kernel driver in use: yenta_cardbus Kernel modules: yenta_socket 09:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express [14e4:1600] (rev 02) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:01c2] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 28 Memory at efcf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Expansion ROM at <ignored> [disabled] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: tg3 Kernel modules: tg3 0c:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection [8086:4222] (rev 02) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:1020] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 27 Memory at efdff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Capabilities: <access denied> samantha@samantha ~ $ |
Can someone please help me....I feel like going back to Vista because its becoming a real headache.

Bumping your own thread in just one minute of posting? Thats a bad idea to do in a volunteer forum where no one is paid to help you.
And from I can see, you have Intel chip for wireless which from my experiences should just work out of the box. I am not too sure what you did. Can you post the output for iwconfig? And also it seems there are no modules loaded for your chip. Did you disable those? |
