Betreff: [dyne:bolic] Atheros wifi driver issue
Hi everyone;
I am trying to use the groovy dynebolic distro on my macbook, I am in
trouble with wifi.I have tried several stuff but I am stuck each time :
ndiswrapper : the dyne version is a bite old : 1.28 , I downloaded the
driver , made a
   ndiswrapper -i net5416.inf , it loads ok,
then ndiswrapper -l                    gives me :
   net5416         driver installed
but as the ndiswrapper doc says, it should give me a :


device (14E4:4320) present

but nothing
so the iwconfig doesn't give me any wlan0 interface
I tried to get the last ndiswrapper but no way to compile, and after
googling the error, it appears that I don't have th e necessary stuff to do
that with dyne (I have the devel dyne copied in my dyne folder, are the
sources included???)
I had allready tried madwifi to get this done but it appears that I got the
same kind of problem (like a ./config file missing)
I am quite a newbie there , does anybody has a clue to help me get this
f....g wifi card working????
thanx
