Nc-2511cf And Udev
« on: October 25, 2007, 05:24:24 pm »
This has been bugging me and I need some help it would seem.

Without udev I can get the card working without any real fuss;
modprobe orinoco_cs
modprobe orinoco
ifup eth0

and bingo its online.

After I install udev its all gone, the best I can seem to get is a blinking green lite and nothing else.  What am I doing wrong and do I really need udev?

Titchy (hddrootfs.tgz) and OH Kernel 2.6.21 (like the Angstrom kernel)

 I don't know whether you are using the kernel that cortez built and uploaded which is of the OABI type? Or are you using the poky kernel which is EABI?

I do know that with the cortez kernel and modules my wifi is rock solid. Just as solid as it is in the Titchy EABI + OABI system. Have you copied the 2.6.21 modules over? I definitely have udev working away.  

Don't know if this is of any help at all. Hope it is!

1. Blacklisted the pesky orinoco_cs and orinoco drivers in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
2. Edited /etc/network/interfaces - added line's for wlan0_rename
    iface wlan0_rename inet dhcp
    wireless essid "wireless"
3. Rebooted
