Working....
DSL 1.4.0 with Compex USB WLU11A device
My version of the device uses the Atmel chipset. There are at least two versions of the device. Plug it into the machine and boot dsl (liveCD boot is fine) . After boot open xterm and enter dmesg command. Look for lines that start with "usb". If you see a line with PID 0x7605 then you have this device. The other version has a PID of 0x7603
Lots of info at Berlios-Atmel page
I had to do a hard drive install to get the Berlios driver to work. I guess I could try to remaster a live CD now but that's for another day (probably more like another week)
1) install DSL on hard drive 2) install Berlios drivers 3) sudo update-modules 4) sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid WIRELESS_LAN_NAME key WEP_KEY mode Managed 5) sudo pump -i wlan0
those commands were from my memory so I hope I got them right.
Thanks again Tempestuous.
-------------- ======== Note ========= The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR' If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts. If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog" Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
