at76c503a on Startup (boot)

Hello all,

         I have the above assembled and installed on Fedora FC-3, with a
customised 2.6.9 kernel.

I have no problems with performance, scanning etc. the driver works as it
should.

It will not however on boot, do an insmod, I have to manually disconnect the
device and connect again, then I have my setting as they should be...

The device in question is an SMC2662W USB EZConnect.

I have made the appropriate modprobe.conf and ifcfg-wlan0 entries, but at
boot, I still have the "manual" problem, as stated above.

Any ideas??    


Regards / Cordialement / Gruss / Saludos

	You should be using the CVS code for 2.6.  Once you get that and
your kernel sources do (as root) make, make install.  Then replug your
device and try ifup wlan0
