Hi everyone, I have a Debian Sarge 2.6.8 running on my laptop and I finally got my wireless adapter to work. But when I reboot it I just cant go pass the jabberd startup. Earlier it was "hanging" on the MTA startup so I apt-get remove exim4-base and got rid of it just to find out that the problem is after it. WhenI boot in the "safe mode" (no services i guess) I can get to the bash w/o problems, start my wireless and use it. How can I found what is causing this problem?
I setup one Sarge laptop with a D-Link wireless card[1] using ndiswrapper where booting with 2.6.8-2-686 (kernel compile for the right cpu type) fails to load some of the relevant drivers while the default 2.6.8-2-386 works. I didn't get time to investigate throughly and just dropped it back to the -386 kernel. It's been working beatifully. If relevant, see if this helps.
