 |
|
Hi,
i read a few old threats from 2004 , which had the same problem i have with my PN11 usb module, but without any solution for fix that problems.
I have a XEN Shuttle PC with an Wlan-USB PN11 Module (based on PRISM3), connected to the internal USB Port (v2.0 i think).
xen # lsusb
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0425:0101 Motorola Semiconductors HK, Ltd
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 124a:4023
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
This ID is not listed in the code of "prism2_usb.c". So i patched the Code to this (without that patch, wlanctl-ng were not able to find the device):
| Code: |
static struct usb_device_id usb_prism_tbl[] = {
...
{PRISM_USB_DEVICE(0x124a,0x4023, "Airvast PRISM3 WLAN USB Adapter")},
...
|
After that i switched to the wlan-src directory (0.2.1.pre26) and compiled und installed it und did all the necessary configuration in /etc/wlan, /etc/modules.d/aliases).
After that it was possible to load the "prism2_usb" Kernel Module:
xen # modprobe prism2_usb prism2_doreset=1
xen # dmesg | tail -n 6
prism2usb_init: prism2_usb.o: 0.2.1-pre26 Loaded
prism2usb_init: dev_info is: prism2_usb
prism2_usb 1-6:1.0: usb_probe_interface
prism2_usb 1-6:1.0: usb_probe_interface - got id
hfa384x_corereset: hfa384x_corereset not supported on USB on 2.5/2.6 kernels.
usbcore: registered new driver prism2_usb
Then i tried to enable the device:
xen # wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_ifstate ifstate=enable
xen # dmesg | tail -n 3
hfa384x_docmd: ctlx failure=REQ_FAILED
hfa384x_drvr_start: cmd_initialize() failed, result=-5
prism2sta_ifstate: hfa384x_drvr_start() failed,result=-5
I also tried to start "wlan" through the gentoo init scripts:
xen # /etc/init.d/wlan start
Starting WLAN Devices: message=lnxreq_ifstate
ifstate=fwload
resultcode=implementation_failure

| maybe try host ap, that also supports prism chipsets and might work better with your card. |
