All - desperate plea for help here.
Overview Centos 4.5 Kernel 2.6.9.55.0.9.EL with source dell Latitude 810
Im totally at my wits end... Ive tried like mad to get ndiswrapper to work for my lynksys WPC54GS wireless card. No matter what I try ndis gives some kind of error on installing the module after about a dozen attempts 8 kernels, and 5 days- I finally GAVE UP!
unreal
So, I install the http://www.linuxant.com/company/ ever$ion (im not above paying $20 to save me a few wasted days) this program dosnt have a problem detecting the card, making the lights blink, I cane see the access point using iwlist scan, I know precisely what the essid is, as well as the encryption key, BUT now.... the stupid thing cant get an ip form my dhcp server!!
Please help - some kind of sanity check, Im ready to jump out the window!! ;)
Im up for ANY solution, I can install kernel source.. ndis bla... I just need some thing that will work. At this point i have an incredibly low opinion of the developers of ndis - that shouldn't not release such stuff. Ive followed the dcs to the letter and either the kernal compile puked... or ndis chokes on some flyshit in a function.... unreal!
Anyway I do have this working on the same laptop but I did it about a year ago and cnat find the 1.37 version of ndis. At tthis point ndis is just too picky
Anyone???
