    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    Ehmm.... I think i might just ran in to a little bit of a problem:
    Code:
    rasmus@rasmus-DellE6400:~/Desktop/compat-wireless-2008-10-03$ make
/home/rasmus/Desktop/compat-wireless-2008-10-03/config.mk:28: *** "ERROR: You should use compat-wireless-2.6-old for older kernels, this one is for kenrels >= 2.6.27".  Stop.
    I've thought about this once before, but i have no idea on how to fix this...

    What do i do now?

    Sorry, I didn't realize that. Try using these instructions:

    1. download this file and save it to your desktop. Also remove any directories or other files that are on your desktop from your previous attempts to install this.

    2. run:
    Code:
    cd ~/Desktop
sudo apt-get install build-essential
wget http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz
tar -xzvf iwlwifi*
sudo cp iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11/iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode /lib/firmware
bunzip2 compat-wireless-old.tar.bz2 
tar xf compat-wireless-old.tar
cd compat-wireless-2.6-old
make
sudo make install
sudo make unload
sudo make load
    You should not need to manually edit any configuration files this time. Does the build work now?

    Also, you may want to try simply switching to Intrepid alpha release. It should include support for your wireless card out-of-the-box.

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    Brilliant work dude... it recognizes my card now... how do i then manage my wireless connection? like choosing which to connect to, and typing codes for the wireless?

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    It still seems to be complaining about some things ('WARNING: Error inserting iwlwifi_mac80211...') but if you say your card is now recognized, that's a good sign.

    To connect, left-click on the Network Manager icon. It should look like two computer screens and should be in the top-right corner of your screen, in the taskbar. When you click on it you should see a list of networks and can choose which one to connect to. Please let me know if it works. If you can't see networks, what is the output of:
    Code:
    sudo iwlist scan

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    Well well... It does show my network, but it seems that it can't connect to it, it tries for something like 2 minutes. i don't know if you can use that piece of code you gave me, but anyway here it is...

    Code:

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    Please try running this command, which should connect you manually:

    Code:
    sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed channel 1 essid "NETGEAR"
sudo dhclient wlan0
    If it works, you should be given an IP address. If it fails the first time, try it once or twice more. Any luck? If not, please post the output of the following commands immediately after your attempts to connect:
    Code:
    dmesg | tail
lshw -C Network

    Im not sure about this at all, but this is what it says:

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    This is what I was afraid of...you can't get the card to authenticate with your router, but it doesn't give any good feedback as to what's wrong.

    One thing to try is to reboot your router, then try to connect. Almost certainly won't make a difference, but won't hurt.

    Second thing is to go to a location where there's a different network that you can connect to, and see if it works there. There could be some peculiarity about your "NETGEAR" network that's making it not work.

    You could also try burning Intrepid beta (get ISO here) to see if that helps. Your card should be up and working out-of-the-box in Intrepid.

    Re: Can not get wireless card to even show up

    Update: I was trying to help out someone else in another thread who was issues that appear to be the same as yours. He or she discovered that there was a regression in the wireless source code since earlier this month (when things worked), which may be the cause of your problem. Try recompiling the driver by running these steps:

    Code:
    wget http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6/2008/09/compat-wireless-old-2008-09-09.tar.bz2
bunzip2 compat-wireless-old-2008-09-09.tar.bz2 
tar xf compat-wireless-old-2008-09-09.tar 
cd compat-wireless-2.6-old
gedit config.mk
    At this point a file should be open. Search the file for the line that reads CONFIG_IWL4965_HT=y (should be line 76). Immediately below this line, insert a new line containing this:

    Code:
    CONFIG_IWL5000=y
    Then save and close the file, and finish by running these commands:
    Code:
    make
sudo make install
sudo make unload
sudo make load
    Then reboot and try connecting again. Please let me know if you have any better luck.
