next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hey,
Last week I finally received my Dell Latitude D630 which is using the
Intel 3945ABG chipset for it's wireless connectivity. This should be
supported with the ipw driver which is available in CURRENT.
Unfortunately my card is not detected when loading the module. I
included the information which I asumed to be relevant. Does anyone what
I can do to fix it. I allready read there were some problems with the
ipw driver, but that was allready from a while ago.
By the way; I also tried using ndiswrapper, unfortunately my system
crashed when trying to load the kernel module so that's not realy an
option either.
