Title: Wellenreiter, Kismet and tkcROM
Post by: Infonick on January 22, 2004, 08:52:44 pm

Hi, I\'m trying to get Wellenreiter II working on my SL-5500. Currently, i have the latest tkcRom installed. I have a Symbol Spectrum24 wireless card.  The card does work, as i have connected to the school network before with it.

Whenever I try to install, the ipkg process cant seem to install files on most of the dependancies.  If i ignor the errors, it turns out that Wellenreiter doesnt run at all.

I would also like to install Kismet and have that working. I can install it, but whenever I have tried to use it, i detect no networks.  If i insert my friends wirless card, it works.  

now that i type it in, i wonder if it\'s a driver thing.   Does the latest tkcRom use the latest Symbol drivers?

thanks in advance.

You say you operate o]k with your friends card ? I didn\'t think Wellenreiter or Kismet would work on any card without a kernel with wireless exstensions enabled. There is one for the 5500 available in the ZUG downloads under kernel source (5500)

Actually it seems like all downloads are returning 0 byte files.
