Zaurus - pdaXrom / Hostap
« on: February 10, 2005, 09:59:47 am »
This is how I run hostap on my Z with RC8. I created a hostap.conf file in my /etc/pcmcia/ directory using the hermes.conf file as a template. I had to make the following adjustments to the file:
After that I located the entry for my card in my newly created hostap.conf file and changed it to use hostap_cs.
Restart your PCMCIA subsystem with /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart. Then re-seat your card and you should now have a wlan0 device that can accept the iwconfig wlan0 mode master command to act as an AP.
To go back just rename or delete the /etc/pcmcia/hostap.conf file and restart your PCMCIA subsystem again.
Code: [Select]
#device "orinoco_cs"
# class "hermes"
# module "hermes", "orinoco", "orinoco_cs"
# module "hermes", "orinoco", "orinoco_cs" opts "pc_debug=3"
device "hostap_cs"
class "hostap"
module "hostap", "hostap", "hostap_cs"
After that I located the entry for my card in my newly created hostap.conf file and changed it to use hostap_cs.
Code: [Select]
card "Ambicom WL1100C 11Mbs Card 802.11b"
manfid 0xd601,0x0002
bind "hostap_cs"
Restart your PCMCIA subsystem with /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart. Then re-seat your card and you should now have a wlan0 device that can accept the iwconfig wlan0 mode master command to act as an AP.
To go back just rename or delete the /etc/pcmcia/hostap.conf file and restart your PCMCIA subsystem again.

How can I get HostAP running in rc8 or rc9??
Just want to use a Senao Prism based card with the HostAP drivers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
