[tlinux-users:08037] Re: wireless trouble

Howard Coles Jr, thank you for your information.
 
 I did. Now is working wireless link in SUSE 10
 
 1) type as a root     #iwconfig
     it will give you the name of your wireless interface, in my case is         eth1
 2) # ifconfig eth1 up
 3) #iwlist eth1 scanning
     you will then see all accesspoint, thier ESSID, etc
     in my case my network cell was "joelhouse"
 4) #iwconfig eth1 essid "joelhouse"
 5) #iwconfig eth1 key 1234567890
     this is the hexadecimal wep key,.. if you have an asscii key try this one   #iwconfig eth1 key s:"1234567890"
 6) #dhcpcd eth1
 it is if your router is a DHCP master or Server
 
 thanks myself, jejejeje.. SUSE runs good in Toshiba A25 S207, Now I am going to install fn keys... I Hope it works ..
 
 I've installed yahoo messenger , Skype, and DVD video xine,, those work OK.

This may sound like I'm being a smart-elek but I'm not:
try another distro.  SUSE 10 locked up my A65, and a Dell D600 every time I 
tried to load wireless.  Something about their kernel just couldn't take 
madwifi, or ndiswrapper.

I loaded SuSE 10 three times on my Toshiba, and it locked up no matter how I 
setup the wireless.  However, running Kubuntu, Debian (Sarge and Sid), and 
even Mandriva it worked fine.
