[NTLUG:Discuss] LinkSys WPC11 wireless card install help

Sun Feb 16 14:10:31 CST 2003

Hi guys.

I need some help installing my Linksys WPC11 wireless card onto my HP zt1180 laptop.

I have installed, via RPM, the following packages:

kernel-wlan-ng  ---- version 0.1.15-6
kernel-wlan-ng-modules-rh80.24 ---- version 0.1.15-6
kernel-wlan-ng-pcmcia ---- version 0.1.15-6

Nothing happens. There isn't even a light on the PCMCIA adapter! Keep in mind that this adapter has worked flawlessly under Win2k and WinXP so I am pretty sure that the adapter is not malfunctioning.

I've run "/sbin/lsmod" but there is no pcmcia adapter nor pcmcia service listed.

Whenever I try to "/sbin/cardctrl/ident" the following message is returned: "no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices"

I think the problem is that my PCMCIA card/slot is not being recognized. I think the drivers/software is set up correctly. I have read lots of install info on the 'NET and they always talk of removing and re-inserting the PCMCIA card and hearing beeps. I never hear any beeps.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

Frank
