I have an iBook G3 600MHz combo (late 2001 model, powerpc) with a USB wireless card rt2x00 that doesn't work. I just compiled a fresh 2.6.26-rc4 kernel and it can't get a lease from the access point, even though it is able to see the access point. The userland here is Debian unstable (sid) and I can perform some of the steps in the direction of configuring the interface. For instance, the following works (I am using wep as the encryption system with other systems running under Linux, but, unfortunately, EVEN disabling encryption for the sake of the tests doesn't help here): *insert USB card* ifconfig wlan0 up iwconfig wlan0 essid "default" iwconfig wlan0 s:my-key iwconfig wlan0 ap any (Here it shows that it can see the access point) dhclient wlan0 (Here, it is unable to grab an IP addess from the access point) I have all the information available (like the revision of my USB device) for any developer that could help me in eliminating this bug from the kernel on big-endian architectures. Thanks in advance, Rogério. P.S.: I am not currently subscribed to linux-kernel, so I would appreciate any copies of the replies. Thanks. -- Rogério Brito : rbrito@{mackenzie,ime.usp}.br : GPG key 1024D/7C2CAEB8 http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito : http://meusite.mackenzie.com.br/rbrito Projects: algorithms.berlios.de : lame.sf.net : vrms.alioth.debian.org
