Hi all, i am trying to get wireless capabilities working on my laptop. I have installed wpa_supplicant but I think I need to get a few things put together for my wireless card. As I cant see it…

Code:
 dissident ~ # ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1D:09:3D:88:1E
          inet addr:10.0.0.211  Bcast:10.0.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::21d:9ff:fe3d:881e/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:1108 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:770 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:134348 (131.1 Kb)  TX bytes:106077 (103.5 Kb)
          Interrupt:17

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

dissident ~ # iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.
Dissident ~ # lspci
0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection (rev 61)

So from what I have read I need to install ipw3945 but when I try to emerge it I get this error
Code:
 ipw3945-1.2.2 requires support for Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (CONFIG_IEEE80211).

So I tried to emerge ieee80211 and I get this error
Code:
ieee80211-1.1.13 requires support for Wireless LAN drivers (non-hamradio) & Wireless Extensions (CONFIG_NET_RADIO).


Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Why don't you just use the driver that is in the kernel? It works fine for me. Didn't even have to configure anything. I just emerged network manager and use it's gnome applet. Tested with public, WPA2-personal and WPA-personal. Probably tomorrow I'll know how it works with WPA-enterprise. Speed seems fine also.

Actually I just checked and it's in the notification area (together with OOo quicklaunch, HPLIP and opera) so it's not a gnome applet. Therefore should also appear in your taskbar. On the other hand networkmanager has a gnome use flag. Apart from that I found this for you:
Code:
* xfce-extra/pynetworkmanager
     Available versions:  ~*0.3-r1 {doc}
     Homepage:            http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~mk0foma/pyNetworkManager
     Description:         Xfce4 Panel Plugin that connects to NetworkManager through DBUS.


Although if you have something else pulling in gnome libs already then it won't heart to try enabling the flag and decide which applet/plugin/whatever is better :)

You should've at least browsed the handbook to know what you can find there :) Read here on masked packages:

Add this to your /etc/portage/package.keyword
Code:
xfce-extra/pynetworkmanager ~*


And read the handbook. It's described there.

Ok so i looked up up in the handbook and it is telling me that the package isn't going to work...

also I had a look and there wasn't a /etc/portage/package.keyword file so i created one and added that to it... and still got the same thing :(

below is the full error, its kinda pointless having a laptop without wireless... any ideas?
Code:
# emerge pynetworkmanager
Calculating dependencies |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "xfce-extra/pynetworkmanager" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- xfce-extra/pynetworkmanager-0.3-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook

I think you need to recompile your kernel with wireless stack/IEEE802.11 supported.

Networking->Wireless

Then, continue with other utilities set up.

ok, so to do that would i have to go to my /usr/src/linux directory and execute make menuconfig from a install cd and go through that and do all that again??? or is there an easier way to do it?

You just go to /usr/src/linux - not from an install cd. And you don't have to go through all that again - just enable the wifi support you ommitet the last time.

The error you received says that you must add the same to /etc/portage/package.keywords and the handbook told that it is possible that you will encounter problems with this package. But it is absolutely not sure.

You have an intel 4965 and not 3945. You need to enable the right driver for it in the kernel.

If he's on a laptop with no wireless connection, he may have no network connection
at all. In which case emerging gentoo-sources will be fairly problematic. It might
be worth checking the current state of his system before going any further.

How could he have a working gentoo installation without any kernel sources? If he does then he must have had a power-user reason to get rid of it. Therefore he should have no problems with fetching the packages from some other box onto a pendrive.

I am trying to find these as listed above in Device Drivers --->Network device support ---> Wireless LAN
and i cant find any of those options... could i be looking in the wrong place? i have looked around everywhere and i cant find it :S :(

Use the search functionality in menuconfig. Search for "4965" and you'll where to find it (menus slightly change names form release to release).

Hi, you need to do this :

Code:

# emerge --info
# emerge -v iwl4965-ucode
# rmmod iwl4965
# modprobe iwl4965
# dmesg | tail
# ifconfig -a
# iwconfig
