Hello, I'm trying to get a LInksys WCF54G 802.11g wireless CF card to work with the OSK. I started off by first trying to get a CF memory card working with the OSK. I configured the kernel for PCMCIA CF support, compiled and configured pcmcia-cs and tested a Sandisk CF memory card (1G). Works fine - mounts, am able to copy to the card and from the card. My configurations are as follows: Linux kernel - 2.6.13-omap1 shell - bash-3.0 card services - pcmcia-cs-3.2.7 wlan-drivers - linux-wlan-ng-0.2.3 I've got linux-wlan-ng configured and compiled. When I insert the Linksys card, I see from the prints that the card is detected: cardmgr[743]: socket 0: Linksys WCF54G cardmgr[743]: executing: 'modprobe prism2_cs 2>&1' cardmgr[743]: + Using /lib/modules/2.6.13-omap1/linux-wlan-ng/p80211.ko prism2cs_init: prism2_cs.o: 0.2.3 Loaded prism2cs_init: dev_info is: prism2_cs cardmgr[743]: + Using /lib/modules/2.6.13-omap1/linux-wlan-ng/prism2_cs.ko and using modprobe, it loads the drivers (p80211.ko and prism2_cs.ko) also. I've probed further using cardctl: 'cardctl status' gives me: 3.3V 16-bit PC Card function 0: [ready] after i eject the card, 'cardctl status' shows: no card However, when the card is in the CF slot and cardmgr says it has detected it, the card doesn't seem to draw power as the power led on the card is idle. Has anyone managed to get any wireless card working with the OSK? Further, I had seen a mail sometime ago on the OSK kernel list saying that CF WLAN cards do not work on the OSK.
