Hello

I am having trouble getting my DWL-G650 to work. I am using the madwifi drivers. I tried the drivers in portage and now I am using the latest drivers from CVS. They install correctly and the card is recognized, but when I try to bring it up the lights just flash like crazy and my computer locks up (have to power it off).

dmesg:
Code:

ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
ath_hal: 0.9.14.9 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413)

lsmod:

yenta_socket           19912  3
rsrc_nonstatic          9344  1 yenta_socket


If anyone has any suggestions on how to resolve, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

- Michael

I have the DWL-650 (the wireless b card) and I just inserted the card and it worked. :-\ I didn't do anything special at all.
