Hi, the wifi gnome2 applet opens /proc/sys/wireless hard in the code... it expects the "/proc linux interface" everywhere. unless someones makes it freebsd (or *bsd ?) friendly, it is not going to work today :-( is there any page where i can find a porting guide for this kind of app? i mean : should i simply insert #ifdef __FreeBSD__ in the code, or is there a more elegant way to do it ? regards, Olivier Cortes Le Mar 05/08/2003 à 04:05, Joe Marcus Clarke a écrit : > On Mon, 2003-08-04 at 04:58, Andrew Thomson wrote: > > On Mon, 2003-08-04 at 03:26, Joe Marcus Clarke wrote: > > > On Sun, 2003-08-03 at 08:30, Andrew Thomson wrote: > > > > just mucking around and noticed this wireless applet. > > > > > > > > however it just comes up with n/a for me when I load it. > > > > > > > > further fishing around revealed that support for wi is available in > > > > gnomeapplets2 2.2.2_1. > > > > > > > > however i don't seem to be having much luck.. any tips? > > > > > > Did you configure it to use wi0?
