 Posted: Mon Jul 14, 2008 7:34 pm Post subject: ipw2200: Unknown parameter `#(add' [solved] |
 |
|
Hi,
I hope I'm posting this in the right place... I'm running 2.6.24-gentoo-r8 on an Inspiron 6000 laptop. My IPW2200 wireless card has been working fine until I rebooted the laptop today and saw that the ipw2200 module failed to load.
$sudo modprobe ipw2200 returns:
| Code: |
FATAL: Error inserting ipw2200 (/lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
|
$dmesg | tail -n 4 returns:
| Code: | ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'
ieee80211: 802.11 data/management/control stack, git-1.1.13
ieee80211: Copyright (C) 2004-2005 Intel Corporation <jketreno@linux.intel.com>
ipw2200: Unknown parameter `#(add' |
So then i ran:
/usr/src/linux $sudo make modules modules_install
$update-modules
$depmod -a
so that I would have a fresh copy of the module, but modprobe just gave me another "unknown parameter `#add'
The only other thing i could think of was the firmware, so i re-emerged ipw2200-firmware, but i only got the same result.
Help please!!!

i think i found something rather relevant...
i tried $sudo modprobe -v ipw2200 and got:
| Code: |
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko led=1 #(add other options here if applicable)
FATAL: Error inserting ipw2200 (/lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
|
note the first line:
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko led=1 #(add other options here if applicable)
that looks a lot like the `#(add ' parameter it was complaining about.. so how do i fix that?
$sudo vim /etc/modules.d/ipw2200
| Code: |
.....
options ipw2200 led=1 #(add other options here if applicable)
.....
|
i removed the #(add other options here if applicable) part and...
$sudo update-modules
$sudo modprobe -v ipw2200
And it works!!! |
