Hmmmm.

Linksys WPC11 tried with:
RedHat 7.2 with default modules that come with the OS's kernel
RedHat 7.2 with a built kernel with modules for the card

RedHat 7.3 with default modules
RedHat 7.3 with built kernel

Both of those also without PCMCIA built into the kernel and
pcmcia_cs-3.1.34
pcmcia_cs-3.1.29

built as add-on.

None of these work. I blew away the entire OS and tried each clean.
Same errors. I thought it may be the card, it may have an older
revision number or something so I bought a D-Link DWL-650+ and tried it.
I've heard good things about the dlink.

The D-Link did not work either. I published the errors with the Linksys
in another thread, so here is what a xircom 10/100/56K card looks like
(the xircom works well):

Well, wvlan_cs didn't work that well, orinoco was supposed to take over
for that anyway so let's try that one:

The 64 dollar question...

What resource is unavailable? How do I fix this? If the resource is
unavailable, why does the xircom work? It's only the wireless cards
that do not.

Thank you for your time

This card is not supported. To my knowledge, all supported PCMCIA
wireless adapters are 16-bit cards; none are CardBus. None of the
existing 16-bit wireless drivers will work with a CardBus adapter.

Well, that does explain that.

I'll take the card back and see what else the store has in for wireless
cards.

Should your card be using wavelan_cs?

I am using a Linksys card and got mine working on RH7.3 quite
quickly. Now, granted, you are using RH7.1, but I found this very
useful from another post.

I added this to my /etc/pcmcia/config file

card "Linksys WPC11 Instant Wireless PCCard"
manfid 0x0274, 0x1612
bind "orinoco_cs"

Double check the manfid to make sure yours is the same. (xterm then
cardctrl ident). When I rebooted everything worked wonderfully.

Which version of the card do you have? I have the WPC11 version 3 and I
haven't been able to get it to work in Redhat 7.2 or 7.3. I'll try your
suggestion this weekend and see if that works.

I gave it a shot. orinoco_cs and wvlan_cs.

I would recommend looking into the linux-wlan project. I've my wireless
cards working using this driver. I have a Linksys WPC11 (version 1),
Linksys WPC11 (version 3), and a D-Link DWL-650. I also have a Cisco
Aironet 352 which works using Cisco's drivers on their site.

linux-wlan site: http://www.linux-wlan.org/

Good luck,
Colin G.
