Hi,

I can try :

1st, you need to get lastest cvs ( go to project page and see in "cvs" section howto download it )

2nd, you need to have kernel sources available as well as wireless tools
( and make sure that running kernel has wireless extensions compiled in )

3rd, you need windows ( aaargh ... ) drivers => .inf and .sys files

From there, everything is explained in the readme that comes with the cvs

Just try and let me know where you fails, I will help you
( I cannot explain everything not knowing what you exactly knows to do )

ok, i will try it tonight...

ok got the lastest cvs

made the ndiswrapper.o without problems..

on utils directory with make i got the following

flex - t inf-parser.l > inf-parser.c
/bin/sh: line 1: flex : command not found
make: *** inf-parser.c error 127
rm inf-parser.c

what i have missing?

daevans, did you get wnlan-ng drivers to work, i'm having the same preoble trying to run kismet and Airsnort.

Hi,

For compiling, you need to install a parser progam called "flex"
Depending on the distribution you are using, you can either get
it as rpm or deb archive, or simply get the source archive from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lex/

Install it and compile it if you download source

Before retrying to compile in the utils directory,
use "make clean", then restart "make"

It works.... It works....

Got the card running.... The flex thing got me confused a the beggining but installed correctly... after that make command worked like a charm...

Im very pleased right now...

Can anyone get the WPC54G Linksys card working for mandrake 9.1? Im a linux newb looking for an easy way for someone new to linux, but trying to learn, to get the wireless working.
I also use WEP 128 bit encryption right now on my Sonyvaio Win XP pro laptop and Mac 17" powerbook laptop. Just cant get the WPC54G working with linux mandrake 9.1.
Please help.

easy go to www.linuxant.com, try the free trial, that one is easy to set up, but will hold for a month.....

medium to hard ndiswrapper.sourceforge.com

You will need to learn some of the linux basics to get this done.

I was hoping someone could tell me how i should get this card working on SuSE 8.2 any help would be appreciated.

ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net

you wll need to update your kernel at least to 2.4.21, to make it work, this project currently is very stable, I have configured it for Mandrake 9.1 and 9.2, an its been working with other distros...

Hi , I used Linuxants Driverloader program, and was able to get it working in both Suse 9 and fedora. The only thing is though on Fedora, I have to unplug and re-insert the card in after i login so it maintains a constant connection. I tried renumbering the services so the pcmcia card would load before the network was brought up (this worked for suse 9), but still having the same issue.
If I do not do this my network connection is intermittent.

Hi yes ive got the same adp andit works fine for win with a dual boot for rh9 cant get it going. After viewing a lot of linux websites it seems the latest version of red hat which is comp is redhat7 i tried a lot of adp s and etho #s inthe drop down box for the activate adp settins none seem to work i was also told that rh9 should have the device drivers for this wireless adps let me know if u get it working and ill do the same for u if i get it going thanks pmasser1

well for Wireless G adapters there is no linux driver yet... we have to rely on wrappers, use ndiswrapper in the link above.. I has been working very well on my system.

ndiswrapper is another go here.

CVS version works perfectly under slack 9.1 with kernel 2.6.1.

I also had it working under 2.4.23 and 2.6.0.
Did not try with 2.4.22, though I suspect it would have worked fine.

Release 4 (NOT CVS) did work with 2.4.23 but would not work with 2.6.x.
CVS is apparantly essential for my laptop with the Yenta module for pcmcia
and 2.6 kernel.

I tried to get the WPC54G working on my laptop running Red Hat Linux 9 (Kernel 2.4.20-28.9) with latest ndiswrapper (0.4). I´ve just started with the penguins, so it may was a too hard intro :-) ... therefore I am thankful for every hint / reply to this issue! Automatic shell script was not working either, so I tried the step by step way.

The problem occurs at driver creation:
[root@brainstation driver]# make install

ld/include/linux/modversions.h -DLINUX -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I/lib/modules/2.4.

What´s wrong here. Has anyone got it running or has some detailed expertise - any guru that can teach a noop ...
