Amilon wlan-nappula ei toimi

[Jeejee-records]

Eli kone on Fujitsu Siemensin Amilo Li 1718-12p ja siinä on sisäänrakennettu wlan, joka ei herää napistaan. Kun  käynnistää wlanin windowsissa, käynnistää koneen uudestaan ja valitsee grubissa ubuntun (9.04, gnome) niin wlan pelaa kyllä, eli nappulassa lienee ongelma.

Tässä koodia, jota ainakin jossakin oli pyydetty.

Kiitos jo etukäteen ja toivottavasti laitoin riittävästi tietoa koneesta yms.

SUCCESS !
I only installed a subversion madwifi package , after finished i have closed the terminal and i couldn't make any 'copy and paste' of the entire operation to have a detailed share of the success here . I saw this thread basically in any linux forum of cyberspace , so i will be really short and essential .

"The 5 rules to have wifi working with Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron on "AMD64 AthlonX2 Acer ASPIRE 5520 and Atheros AR242x 802.11abg" .

It was a week ago , so they are well tested .

1 ) First purge any presence or activity of any form of ndiswrapper. After reboot the Hardware drivers listed in System/HardwareDrivers must have a red light aside .

2 ) Remove from /etc/modprobe/blacklist any reference of ath_pci and ath_hal you removed before ...

3 ) Download:

Koodia: [Valitse]

svn co https://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6
4 ) Install it reading the INSTALL files inside the package.

5 ) Enable back both drivers , reboot , enjoy !!!!

P.S.
If you don't know much of compiling generally ( and this case is about compiling a module ) launch apt-get install module-assistant . Than launch it on its own in a terminal window and it prompts you with a list of options . Choose "PREPARE" it is to prepare the system for compiling modules and it downloads for you all kernel headers and compilers you need . It's best if you do this before you launch "make && make install" after the driver download !!!!
