Problem with wireless CardBus Cisco with udev, kernel 2.6.15, pcmciautils, pcmcia-cs...



Hi,

Before using udev, kernel 2.6.15, pcmciautils everything worked ok on my Apple PowerBook laptop.

With these programs (udev 0.079-1, kernel 2.6.15-1, pcmciautils 012-1, pcmcia-cs 3.2.8-5.2), the wireless connection does not work anymore. Has anyone an explanation please?

Here is more information:

After inserting my card, I must execute manually:
snoopy:~# iwconfig eth2 essid XYZT
[it connects ok]
snoopy:~# dhclient eth2

=====================================

My /etc/network/interface:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug eth2
iface eth2 inet manual
  post-up /etc/network/eugen

allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
  post-up /etc/network/eugen

--------------------

The script eugen looks like this:
res=`iwlist $IFACE scan`
echo $res|grep dedu >/dev/null
if [ $? = 0 ]; then
    # home
    iwconfig $IFACE essid dedu key XYZT-...
else
    ...
