I would say you probably have a dead card as i have the same model and it has worked flawlessly under numerous kernels and distro's.On Thu, 2005-01-27 at 00:36 +0000, Grant Sewell wrote: And to cap things off... I have a Cisco Aironet 350. Doesn't work at all. Doesn't even register with the system, so I can't try using ndis. Cisco do have some specific 'drivers' for Linux for this device, but they're for 2.4.x series kernels only. The airo and airo_cs modules are also not playing. It has crossed my mind that this might be a dead card, but since I haven't got any Windows laptops around to play with, I can't really test it.
Thanks Kelly. All things do point to a dead card. It's actually one of those PCMCIA-cum-PCI cards (PCI card that's a PCMCIA adaptor), but as far as I can discern the PCMCIA card part of things is identical to 'proper' PCMCIA cards. Under Linux it doesn't even register. Under Windows - as a PCI card - it completely locks up the machine. Under Windows - as a PCMCIA card (found a Windows laptop to try it on) - it locks up the machine until you eject the device. Sounds like a dead card to me... I no longer have to wonder why it was free :op Cheers.
