Dear guru,

I downloaded the latest 11Mbps linux-wlan¢â Project package.
I easily compiled, but it doesn't work.

1. /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng doesn't work well
wlan-nt.opt has
#USER_MIB="\
p2RoamingMode=2"

But when ./wlan-ng start wlan0 is executed, the above line causes error.
So I disableed. Is my step alright?

2. module order
When the Kernel is up, the /var/log/messages has
-----------
executing: 'insmod /lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o'
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol
p80211pb_alloc_p80211
 /lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol
p80211pb_free
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol
register_wlandev
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol
p80211netdev_rx
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol
unregister_wlandev
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol wlan_setup
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20kr/pcmcia/prism2_cs.o: unresolved symbol wlan_unsetup
cardmgr[377]: insmod exited with status 1
cardmgr[377]: executing: 'modprobe prism2_cs'
kernel: p80211.o: 0.1.7 Loaded
kernel: init_module: prism2_cs.o: 0.1.7 Loaded
kernel: init_module: dev_info is: prism2_cs
--------
As you can see, prism2_cs.o has function call which is defined in p80211.o.
But p80211.o is loaed later then prism2_cs.o
This order and message is OK?

3. Ping error
Finally, even if ifconfig shows good configuration, when ping is exected,
/var/log/messages shows

---
p80211knetdev_hard_start_xmit: Tx attempt prior to association, frame
dropped. 
---
What happened?
