Hi Folks, I'd like to install my USB-WLAN-Stick Netgear WG111v3. Ndiswrapper works correct after installing Kernel-Modules from atrpm ndiswrapper-kmdl-2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.centos.plus-1.52-16.el5.i686.rpm. But by calling wpa_supplicant with wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -d machine freezes. My wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 network={ ssid="MyNet" scan_ssid=1 proto=WPA key_mgmt=WPA-PSK pairwise=TKIP group=TKIP #psk="MyPSK" psk=9050ec6fe020b1738fce16c93c33b3809b9e62d5e6bf955518076eb2d7263 } With this configuration it works correct with Sidux (a debian clone). But with CentOS 5.1 ....??? No hints in /var/log/messages or dmesg available. Has somebody an advice/ a solution for me? More information needed? Thx Timothy

I have not used the ndiswrapper from atrpms, so I can't comment on that. Have you tried NetworkManager? fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/NetworkManager We will have a newer version of Network Manager and wpa_supplicant in the soon to be released CentOS-5.2 (as well as more hardware supported in the 5.2 kernel), so maybe that will help.> With this configuration it works correct with Sidux (a debian clone). > > But with CentOS 5.1 ....??? > > No hints in /var/log/messages or dmesg available. > > Has somebody an advice/ a solution for me? > More information needed?-------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
