Title: Can't Get Symbol Wireless To Work On Cacko 3k B1
Post by: bcom75 on May 19, 2005, 09:33:53 pm

Hi to all
             installed cacko 3k beta 1 on my C3000, works like a charm
I can't, however, get my symbol la4137 wireless card going on it - i insert the card, a small text pops up in the lower right part of the screen recognising the card correctly (dmesg prints some lines too abuot it, recognition seems fine), but the card only blinks for a few seconds and then goes dark again - and the Connect button the network configuration window is gray all the time - I have tried all config settings, but wizard seems unavailable too...
any advice to get this card running on cacko 3k1 ? Many thanks!

This thread (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=11955) is about Symbol Spectrum card and Sharp ROM on C3k.
Hope it helps you somehow, but if you don't have access to the wizard... you can try to config it manually as a LAN card and then use iwconfig.
I was having the same behaviour with my Symbol spectrum card. I guess this implies there's nothing new in Cacko 3kb1 relating to wifi drivers...
