Hi all,
Recently I bought a PLANEX GW-CF11X, I downloaded the last prism3 drivers from sharp website, with these drivers in the original Sharp ROM everything worked perfectly but in cacko ROM the card is recognized and no led blinks at all, after cardctl status I see that is suspended but it doesn't change its status after cardctl resume, any hint?
I tried also OZ and it worked even if it was recognized as another kind of card. The problem is that I need Japanese support and cacko 1.22 rom is the one that suits me the best
Thanx

I have the same issue with the same card. Sharp released the wlan-ng drivers in the update that supports this wf card in the stock rom, but these drivers were removed from cacko 1.22. The readme says that the drivers are available as a separate download but I cannot find them.
Any luck?

Hi zetile
I already tried sharp driver under cacko and also this one http://digit.que.ne.jp/visit/index.cgi?Lin...%E9%A5%A4%A5%D0 (http://digit.que.ne.jp/visit/index.cgi?Linux%A5%B6%A5%A6%A5%EB%A5%B9%2FGW-CF11X%A5%C9%A5%E9%A5%A4%A5%D0)
both with identical results, card recognized but no led light and no connection.
typing cardctl status in the console I get that the state is [suspended] but I can't get it ready with cardctl resume
hopeless

Montero,
I think it is neccesary to flash the rom of this card. If you open sharp's ipk it contains some .hex files that contain the new rom data.
I will try that as soon as they fix my zaurus in bicamera. It died!
Also I was thinking about using cacko 21 and installing sharp's ipk. cacko 21 didn't use hostap_cs drivers, it used wlang-ng drivers so that might work.

Anyone got this to work yet? I'm having the same problem. It's stuck in "suspended".

i have an origo 2511 mercury card and i also have problems with wlan... i hope on the next cacko release wlan-ng drivers are available again...

Well, while I wait for next Cacko 1.22 release I'm working with the original Sharp ROM it is the fastest way to have my wifi card working
