Subject2.4.19 orinoco_cs with Lucent WaveLAN "bronze"
Date
Hi Jean,

Today I played with wireless LAN euqipment for the first time.
I have ISA-to-PCMCIA converter and a Lucent (IEEE) PCMCIA card.
I set up everything as directed by HOWTOs. I do:

# modprobe pcmcia_core
# modprobe i82365
# modprobe ds
# cardmgr -o

syslog:
=======
kernel: Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22
kernel: options: [pci] [cardbus]
kernel: Intel PCIC probe:
kernel: Vadem VG-469 ISA-to-PCMCIA at port 0x3e0 ofs 0x00, 2 sockets
kernel: host opts [0]: none
kernel: host opts [1]: none
kernel: ISA irqs (scanned) = 5,9,10 status change on irq 10
cardmgr[1212]: watching 2 sockets
kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0c00-0x0cff: clean.
kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0800-0x08ff: clean.
kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0100-0x04ff: excluding 0x200-0x207 0x378-0x37f 0x4d0-0x4d7
kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0a00-0x0aff: clean.
cardmgr[1212]: starting, version is 3.2.1
kernel: cs: memory probe 0x0d0000-0x0dffff: clean.
cardmgr[1212]: socket 0: Lucent Technologies WaveLAN/IEEE Adapter
cardmgr[1212]: executing: 'modprobe orinoco_cs'
kernel: hermes.c: 5 Apr 2002 David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
kernel: orinoco.c 0.11b (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au> and others)
kernel: orinoco_cs.c 0.11b (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au> and others)
kernel: eth0: Station identity 00zz:00zz:00zz:00zz
kernel: eth0: Looks like a Lucent/Agere firmware version 3.04
kernel: eth0: Ad-hoc demo mode supported
kernel: eth0: MAC address zz:zz:zz:zz:zz:zz
kernel: eth0: Station name "HERMES I"
kernel: eth0: ready
kernel: eth0: index 0x01: Vcc 5.0, irq 5, io 0x0100-0x013f
cardmgr[1212]: executing: './network start eth0'
cardmgr[1212]: exiting

Then I proceed with ifconfig and tcpdump to see whether it works,
but so far I only see this in the log:

kernel: eth0: error -110 reading info frame. Frame dropped.
last message repeated 9 times
kernel: eth0: error -110 reading info frame. Frame dropped.
last message repeated 16 times
kernel: eth0: error -110 reading Rx descriptor. Frame dropped.
kernel: eth0: error -110 reading info frame. Frame dropped.
last message repeated 2 times
kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode
kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode

Maybe my signal is too weak, maybe not, I never played with Wavelan
before. Someone with cluebat?

Sometimes I see this (of course I did not remove card):

kernel: eth0: error -110 reading frame header. Frame dropped.
kernel: hermes @ IO 0x100: Card removed while issuing command.
last message repeated 165 times
last message repeated 341 times
last message repeated 54 times
kernel: eth0: Error -110 setting PROMISCUOUSMODE to 1.
kernel: eth0: Error -110 setting multicast list.
kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
kernel: hermes @ IO 0x100: Card removed while issuing command.
last message repeated 65 times

and I can't get card working without reboot after this.
I'm getting "Trying to free nonexistent resource <000003e0-000003e1>"
when I unload PCMCIA modules. Whan I try to repeat modprobe+cardmgr
sequence I see "socket 0: Anonymous Memory" which is obviously wrong.

Unabridged syslog and ifconfig/iwconfig attached for those
who wish to dig deeper.
