debian etch wifi problems
problems with wifi...
hello this is my first post so i would appreciate any suggestion or recommendation. I just installed Debian etch from netinstall on my laptop (Fujitsu siemens lifebook e7010) and i have problems with the wireless interface,
this is what i get with lspci:
02:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
02:0d.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01)
this is what i get when i type iwconfig:
lo no wireless extensions.
eth2 no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
eth1 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"test"
Mode:Master Frequency:2.422 GHz Access Point: 00: E0:001: E3:35

wlan0_rename IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"test"

i tried to configure eth1 and wlan0_rename in /etc/network/interfaces but i can make it work..
