I have some troubles with my pcmcia NIC.. it's a 3CRWE62092B and it uses the Atmel drivers-
I try to search for AP with
Code:
iwlist eth1 scan
but get the following error msg:
Code:
eth1      Interface doesn't support scanning : Resource temporarily unavailable

anyone had this trouble?
I use the 2.6.5-mm6 kernel with support for atmel in modules..
I also emerged pcmcia-cs and wireless-tools

Any help is appreciated..

I've had that with my orinoco pcmcia card.
IIRC I had to bring the interface up before it would scan
Code:
ifconfig eth1 up
iwlist eth1 scan
