Airport card on a powerbook
Hi,
I have a Powerbook G3 (pismo) with an internal airport card which I am
trying to make talk to my other laptop, a Toshiba Tecra 8100 with a
Cisco aironet 450 card. Both laptops are running sid. the other night, I
had the cards on the same channel (6/2.437 GHz) and on the same network.
I fired up wavemon on both, and was getting signal on the
I upgraded the airport's firmware to 2.0.2 under MacOS9. I was running
2.4.19pre4, and upgraded to 2.4.19-5. I have been manually starting the
airport card until I get the wireless network working. When I start the
card, I get unresolved symbols for the following from airport.o:
hermes_struct_init
orinoco_shutdown
orinoco_reset
orinoco_proc_dev_cleanup
alloc_orinocodev
orinoco_interrupt
hermes_reset
orinoco_proc_dev_init
The modules seem to load after this:
[root@keldon root]# lsmod
Module Size Used by Not tainted
airport 3460 0 (autoclean)
orinoco 33312 0 (autoclean) [airport]
hermes 9552 0 (autoclean) [airport orinoco]
but an iwconfig gives me
Warning: Driver for device eth1 has been compiled with version 13
of Wireless Extension, while this program is using version 15.
Some things may be broken...
How can I get the version 13/version 15 issue synced and get the two
cards talking to each other?
Thanks,
