Wi-Fi not working on clean Slackware 14.2 install
Hi,
I have an IBM T-30 w 2GB or RAM which I just did a clean install of Slackware on. Previously, it had Windows 2000 on which the wireless card (Intel 2915 card) was working fine. When the system boots, there is a network manager icon in the system tray, which sees my AP and prompts for credentials when I try to connect. Once I enter the credentials, the laptop appears to connect for about 3-4 seconds but then quickly displays 'Disconnecting' and then "disconnected' on the screen. I tried editing the '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf ' file as per the Alien Bob Wiki, but no change. Maybe I'm missing something obvious?? -Tks. |
