Can't get wifi working, Orinoco on IBM T22 laptop
I have a classic Orinoco gold card (rebranded 2Wire) and an old T22. The card works fine under Knoppix livecd, but i've not been able to get it running under Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary). (Haven't upgraded to Breezy bc i can't risk downtime right now -- I'm nowhere near linux expert.)
I can see the drivers in lsmod:
Code:
orinoco_cs 8968 1
orinoco 38284 1 orinoco_cs
hermes 7936 2 orinoco_cs,orinoco
pcmcia 21380 5 orinoco_cs
pcmcia_core 53568 3 orinoco_cs,pcmcia,yenta_socket
And dmsg doesn't appear to have any wifi errors:

Here's my ifconfig (eth0 is my wired connection):
