I got my wireless connection up! Well yeah, but not on a regular boot! It is in the boot section, but there it keeps on saying: Determining IP address and then fails (Check Cable?).
Now after logging in as root I type in the Terminal:
ifconfig ra0 up
dhclient ra0 -d &
and then the Internet is up. Any chance I can get this to work on a boot?
Sorry again for being so worse with linux yet...!
It is most likely trying to connect before the driver module is loaded. In my Suse laptop, I use NDISWrapper. There is a line in /etc/sysconfig/kernel for loading modules, I have added NDISWrapper.
This starts my wireless up, but I need to give a password before it will connect.Code:## Type: string
## ServiceRestart: boot.loadmodules
#
# This variable contains the list of modules to be loaded
# once the main filesystem is active
# You will find a few default modules for hardware which
# can not be detected automatically.

MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT="ndiswrapper"
