Note:

Some of the subdirectories have empty README files. This means we haven't
|
|
gotten to the contents of these directories. The empty README is just a trick
|
|
to prevent CVS from pruning the directory.

The following build and install instructions assume you have configured source
|
|
code for both the linux kernel package and pcmcia-cs package installed on your
|
|
system. It's important that the configured code for these packages match
|
|
the kernel and pcmcia-cs you're running.
|
|
|
|
Build Instructions:
|
|
|
|
1) untar the package using
|
|
|
|
tar zxvf linux-wlan-ng-0.1.3.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
or you can use winzip with the file linux-wlan-ng.tar.
|
|
|
|
2) Make sure you have configured kernel and pcmcia sources on your system.
|
|
|
|
3) To clean up any unwanted files accidentally included in the tar package,
|
|
run 'make clean'.
|
|
|
|
4) To configure the package, run 'make config' and respond to the questions.
|
|
'make config' must be run after a 'make clean' and before 'make all'.
|
|
|
|
5) To build the package, run 'make all'
|
|
|
|
6) To install the package, run 'make install' (as root).
|
|
|
|
7) Edit the /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.opts file to configure. These options are
|
|
set every time you insert a card. If you want to change one, a) pop
|
|
your card out, b) alter the file, c) insert your card.
|
|
|
|
8) Edit your network.opts file to setup your IP settings.
|
|
|
|
9) Restart pcmcia-cs with the command:
|
|
|
|
/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart
|
|
|
|
10) Insert the card. A solid LED indicates that the SSID you specified
|
|
was found, a bss was joined, and the firmware completed the authenticate
|
|
and associate processes.
|
|
|
|
11) Run ifconfig and route to determine if your IP and route settings are
|
|
listed as you wanted them. It's also a good idea to look at the file
|
|
/etc/resolv.conf to see if your nameserver address has been set up
|
|
correctly.
