that probably can access the internet from Windows98.
Will there be a way to do the same with BasicLinux 3.5?
The Avaya card (FCC ID IMRWLPCE24H) uses the orinco_cs
module. You will find it at the BL3 site:
-----------------------------------------------------------
http://www.basiclinux.com.ru/add-ons/2_2_26/modules/pcmcia/
-----------------------------------------------------------
Put it in BL3: /lib/modules/2.2.26/pcmcia
You will also need to edit /etc/pcmcia/config.
Depending on the ID string in your card, it will
be something like this:
--------------------------------------------------------
device "orinoco_cs"
class "network" module "hermes", "orinoco", "orinoco_cs"
card "Avaya World Card"
version "Avaya Communication", "Avaya Wireless PC Card"
bind "orinoco_cs"
-------------------------------------------------------
It appears from the above that you may need the hermes
and orinoco modules too. I suggest you experiment.
Cheers,
Steven
What I copied about wvlan_cs appears to be out of date for the Avaya card. orinoco_cs supercedes wvlan_cs. Use Steven's information instead. Sorry.
You can use either a "version" or a "manfid" line after the card name and before the bind line. (Or maybe even a "function" line if you only own
one card with that function - function network?).
