Hello,
I have a lot of problems getting the Marvell wireless card to work on openSuse 11.0 ( dual boot on Gateway M-series).
The card was detercted at install time but marked not configured.
I tried ndiswrapper but it seems that the entry created at install should be deleted. Yast does not allow to to anything that entry.
Some info from my system provided below.
How could I remove it ?
Thank you,
Nick
HW: Gateway Mseries
OS : Windows Vista 32b
Wireless works ( 192.168.1.102, GW. 192.168.1.1)
Access Point : LiksSys WRT54GX
Wireless adapter : Marvell ™ PCI-Express 802.11bg
Marvell Ethernet controller (Not connected)
BusID : 0000:02:00.0
Unable to configure the network card because the kernel device (eth0, wlan0) is not present. This is mostly caused by missing firmware (for wlan devices). See dmesg output for details.
I cannot remove/edit the above entry in YasT/Netwwork Devices
Tried ndiswrapper ( provided netmw147.inf/MRW147.sys downloaded from marvell.com )
ndiswrapper -l
netmw147 : driver installed
device (11AB:2A30) present
modprobe -l ndiswrapper
