            Just to show you how much of a NOOB I am. you really lost me
with the below statement.  Are you saying that in the dmesg I would find a
message hotplug followed directory by an error message after it?  Also, is
there some other place I could be looking for more information that might
help like sometime of log or such?

        A hotplug problem at boot perhaps?  In Debian it says it didn't work
but that message is wrong.

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??

  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

Dear All,
 
   I was hoping that someone from this list could help me with my
Linksys WUSB11 version 2.6 working in Fedora Core 3.  Also, I very new to
linux. 
 
   The problem I am getting is when I do a make I get the follow
message:
 
At76c503.c
In function ieee80211_to_eth
Line 3922
Warning: Assignment from incompatible pointer type.  
 
I have also tried the 0.12beta files and get the same error message.
Though, I do get the at76c503.o and can do a make install.  After plugging
in the wireless card, I still do not get the blinking lights that would
imply that it works.  I then do a dmesg and see that it tries to download
firmware and after that I get a message:
 
At76c503 unexpected opmode 185
 
   I have the KT133 chip set and have not tried a cheap USB hub, short
on cash.  I did get it working for a short time by upgrading from Redhat
      

9.0
    

to Fedora Core 3 and it was working most of the time until I patched it.
After patching it I also got the above errors.  I then decided that a
      

clean
    

install might work better, but was wrong.
 
   Any help would be great.
 
Thanks,
Mike

In dmesg, there is no evidence of hotplug not working...

Hotplug version is: hotplug-2004_04_01-8.1

Any ideas??
