Tulipa tuossa tuo Ubuntu 8.04 LTS asenneltua koneelle ja nyt pitäs päästä päivittelemään tuohon kaikkee.
Ongelmana tuppaapi olemaa vaan tuo pci-väylään liitettävä langaton verkkokortti. Pakkauksen kannessa luki, että on linuxiin sopiva ja kyllähän tuolla asennus cdlläkin ohjeetkin ilmeisesti on. Ensimmäinen ongelma tuon ohjeen kanssa on vaan se, ettei siitä tajua yhtään mitään. Tuohon alapuolelle ne kohta kopioin, jotta joku voisi niistä hieman selventää ja auttaa asennuksen kanssa.
Sanokaas jos en jotakin oleellista sanonut, parhaanimukaan koitan kertoa.

RTL8185 Linux Driver v1024.0302.2007 for linux kernel 2.6
- Support Client mode for either infrastructure or adhoc mode
- Support WEP and WPAPSK/WPA2PSK connection
===============================================================================================
< Component >
The driver is composed of several parts:
(1)source code
rtl8185.tar.gz
stack.tar.gz
(2)Script ot build the modules
makedrv
(3)Script to load/unload modules
wlan0up
wlan0down
(4)Script and configuration for DHCP
wlan0dhcp
ifcfg-wlan0
(5)Supplicant source code
wpa_supplicant-0.4.9.tar.gz
(6)Example of supplicant configuration file
wpa1.conf
< Installation >
Running the scripts can finish all operations of building up modules from source code and start the nic:
(1)Build up the driver from the source code
./makedrv
(2)Load the driver module to kernel and start up nic
./wlan0up
(if "insmod: error inserting 'r8180.ko': -File exists." met,
./wlan0rmv
./wlan0down
./wlan0up
should be OK.
)
(3)Refer to < Set wireless lan MIBs > to set Wireless LAN specific parameters.
< Set wireless lan MIBs >
This driver uses Wireless Extension as an interface allowing you to set
Wireless LAN specific parameters.
Current driver supports "iwlist" to show the device status of nic
iwlist wlan0 [parameters]
where
parameter explaination [parameters]
----------------------- -------------
Show available chan and freq freq / channel
Show and Scan BSS and IBSS scan[ning]
Show supported bit-rate rate / bit[rate]
Show Power Management mode power
For example:
iwlist wlan0 channel
iwlist wlan0 scan
iwlist wlan0 rate
iwlist wlan0 power
Driver also supports "iwconfig", manipulate driver private ioctls, to set MIBs.
iwconfig wlan0 [parameters] [val]
where
parameter explaination [parameters] [val] constraints
----------------------- ------------- ------------------
Connect to AP by address ap [essid]
Set the essid, join (I)BSS essid [mac_addr]
Set operation mode mode {Managed|Ad-hoc}
Set keys and security mode key / enc[ryption] {N|open|restricted|off}
For example:
iwconfig wlan0 ap XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
iwconfig wlan0 essid "ap_name"
iwconfig wlan0 mode Ad-hoc
iwconfig wlan0 mode essid "name" mode Ad-hoc
iwconfig wlan0 key 0123456789 [2] open
iwconfig wlan0 key off
iwconfig wlan0 key restricted [3] 0123456789
< Getting IP address >
After start up the nic, the network needs to obtain an IP address before transmit/receive data.
This can be done by setting the static IP via "ifconfig wlan0 IP_ADDRESS" command, or using DHCP.
If using DHCP, setting steps is as below:
(1)connect to an AP via "iwconfig" settings
iwconfig wlan0 essid [name] or
iwconfig wlan0 ap XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
(2)run the script which run the dhclient
./wlan0dhcp
or
dhcpcd wlan0
(Some network admins require that you use the
hostname and domainname provided by the DHCP server.
In that case, use
dhcpcd -HD wlan0)
< WPAPSK >
WPA_SUPPLICANT help the network to communicate under the protection of WPAPSK mechanism
(1)Unpack source code of WPA supplicant:
tar -zxvf wpa_supplicant-0.4.9.tar.gz
cd wpa_supplicant-0.4.9
(2)Create .config file:
cp defconfig .config
(3)Edit .config file, uncomment the following line:
#CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW=y.
(4)Build WPA supplicant:
make
If make error for lack of <include/md5.h>, install the openssl lib:
1. Install the openssl lib from corresponding installation disc:
Fedora Core 2/3/4/5(openssl-0.9.71x-xx), Mandrake10.2/Mandriva10.2(openssl-0.9.7x-xmdk),
Debian 3.1(libssl-dev), Suse 9.3/10.0/10.1(openssl_devl), Gentoo(dev-libs/openssl), etc.
2. Download the openssl open source package from www.openssl.org, build and install it.
(5)Edit wpa_supplicant.conf to set up SSID and its passphrase.
For example, the following setting in "wpa1.conf" means SSID to join is "BufAG54_Ch6"
and its passphrase is "87654321".
network={
ssid="BufAG54_Ch6"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
group=CCMP TKIP WEP104 WEP40
psk="87654321"
priority=2
}
Note: 1. proto=WPA for WPA, proto=RSN for WPA2.
2. If you want to connect an AP which works under WPA2 mixed mode, you'd better
use Realtek customed wpa_supplicant package.
(6)Execute WPA supplicant (Assume 8185 and related modules had been loaded):
./wpa_supplicant -D ipw -c wpa1.conf -i wlan0 &
