Well, I finally gave it up! Before I bought the card I asked personel at Suse what card to choose and they recomended this one. When I was stuck with problems they deny they ever recommended it and they say that wireless cards they don´t give support to unless you pay extra... Now I returned the card and ordered a wireless access-point instead - an access point that I can connect to through the wired network card. I hope that should make it work.

Java in konqueror I am fed up with all problems in windows and I have started my change to linux. But in sweden every company is totally microsoft influenced which means that I got huge problems for each step. Right now I am stuck because my bank and other services I need to use through internet only can be handled with ie 6.0 and their java. 1) When I use konqueror the website will not work as it should - often som input fields are missing. In the preferences for ie 6.0 it says: Java JIT-compiler active. Is that the problem? 2) And if so: how can one get Konqueror handle that? 3) I have heard there are 2 different javas that are in conflict, and sometimes needs to change manually between the two. How is that done? (I know one can install ie 6.0 through wine but I like konqueror more and I want to get rid of all MS in my box)

Yes, I've tried that too and it works pretty well. It's just that i dont like to have to use ie. I would like to get rid of it... And I don't understand what code they are using to be able to only get ie work and nothing else? It would be nice if anyone could show me what plug-in program to use in order to make these web-pages to work in konqueror... About laziness among webmasters i agree on that. It's just that in sweden there are all too many webmasters that both are lazy and that believe that Windows and ie is the only thing that exists. ;(

I was afraid of this. That means there is something in that java that doesn't work the same as in ie6.0 still. It should look like this: http://home.swipnet.se/armsjolandet/sigma.jpg You see the input fields that are missing? Don´t ask me why this happens but please help me to get through this. If possible. (In Sweden a lot of webpages end up in this way and they refuse to give support for anything else than ie6.0)

Well, I did this except I made chmode through kde But when i cd into the directory and start the file I get a message upp to press 1 to continue and then I get the prompt again. No more questions. No option of where to install. I found nearly the same java (just 1_4_2) was included in the dist so I installed that too with Yast. I find the directories with the files, I redirect the linc in Konqueror. Unfortunately I cant check the page you said probably becaouse of my slow connection. I will not get all parts of it. I would like to ask you: Do you get the input fields on this page: https://www.e-recept.nu when using Konqueror and java? Should be two inputfields on the left side of page in the same row and one button to the right of them. I get them with ie6.0 but not with K.

This happens: a lot of text get up on the screen: ... will taint the kernel: non-GPL license module ath_hal loaded with warnings module wlan loaded with warnings /lib/modules/.. ../ath_pca_o: init_module: no such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. ifconfig doesn't find the card, iwconfig doesn't find the card. When looking at the system one can clearly see that the card exists and is recognized by Suse. What have I done wrong?

You have the link a few steps earlier (that 90 Mb file) x) Exact link is: https://jsecom16a.sun.com:443/ECom/EComA...193d37772ab9d%3 (if possible to pass the acception pages etc)

Well, here I'm back again. The make and make install worked all right. wireless tools version 26 is installed when I load module ath_pci with modprobe ath_pci this happens: linux:/ # modprobe ath_pci.o modprobe: Can't locate module ath_pci.o linux:/ # modprobe :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_pci.o modprobe: Can't locate module ath_pci which is needed for :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_pci.o linux:/ # modprobe :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_pci modprobe: Can't locate module ath_pci which is needed for :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_pci linux:/ # modprobe :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath_pci.o modprobe: Can't locate module ath_pci which is needed for :/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath_pci.o linux:/ # I searched for ath_*.* and found these locations on the computer: file:/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath_hal.o file:/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_hal.o file:/tmp/Madwifi/filer/ath_hal/ath_hal.o file:/usr/share/doc/howto/en/txt/Athlon-Powersaving-HOWTO.gz file:/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath_pci.o file:/lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/net/ath_pci.o file:/tmp/Madwifi/filer/driver/ath_pci.o file:/tmp/Madwifi/filer/tools/athstats.c And here I am again. Stuck as ever. Any suggestions anyone?

well, as a matter of fact you can help me. I've installed the java (it was self extraction to /usr/lib/SunJava2-1.4/jre/bin when I started the install program) Then I have tried to redirect in konqueror to that directory and the file Java (There are a few different files here: java, java_vm, keytool, kinit, klist, ktab, orbd, policytool, rmid, rmiregistry, servertool, tnameserv) Still the browser will not handle the code I want it to. One typical swedish page with this slight problem is found in https://www.e-recept.nu It should have two input fileds in it but without the java in ie6.0 the page is shown without these fields and then you can't get further. Of course no support is given for anything except ie6.0 from their webmaster...

It took >24h but now I maged to get it through another computer. i will test Your instructions tonight when I get home and see what happens.

Thank you! I haven't seen that. I will try following these instructions when I come back to my own computer tonight.

Well, you might be right but before I can figure it out I have to get the card working in the mashine, and thats where I am stuck today. The wg311 card is 802.11g card too so it should work with the router. Any suggestions on how to get further?

I give it a new try then, to download. I mean: what is 12 hours out of a year? I hope noone try to use the phone... But it can be worth it. My first downloads were done with a 1.2k modem and if I could get files of 2Mb then it should be possible to get 90 Mb with 31K modems.

The wireless router I try to connect to is Netgear FWG114P. It is 802.11g but could be configured as access-point for 11g, 11b or both. As fast as I have got the card working I will try next setup: what protocoll and what security settings.

Thanks. I managed to find a neat little package on sun when I used Altavista and searched for the file You mentioned. It was an installation description but from it I could get further to latest edition: sdk-1_4_2-nb-3_6-bin-linux.bin (From http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html ) I started to download it (90.69 Mb) but my modem haven't yet manage to handle it. Is the file You mention as large as this one? (I don't have Yahoo) And my second question: In the configuration meny on konqueror Java is activated and the executable points to /usr/lib/java2/bin/java I still don't understand this with java. Some people say there exists two different java but most programs just mention "java supported". Is the giant file more compatible with the JIT-java in ie6.0?

Thank you very much! I have done what you wrote and that works all right. But then what? I tested with ifconfig - only the wired card was seen. i tried with YAST and wrote ath_hal as module namne - nothing happens. I test iwconfig - the card is not seen. I try modprobe ath_hal and it loads all right. I try yast, iwconfig, ifconfig again with the same result. Well, I know I'm a newbie and probably ther is something I missed. Please help me on.

Hi I was told that netgear wg311 should work fine in linux, but so far it hasn't. I use suse 9.0 pro. The kernel (2.4...) should be ready for wireless cards. When I try using YAST as recommended and look at the system the card is recognized. I can configure wireless cards with YAST but I dont't get it to work. I have tried to install the driver but since I am a newbie I didn´t manage. I was stuck in what files to dowload, if I should rebuild the kernel or not, etc. I would be happy if someone could give me step-by step instructions...
