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.
