Hi all,
I just installed gentoo and my wireless isn't working. I tried using ath5k, ath_pci, and ndiswrapper
this is my wireless device:
Code:
14:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5006EG 802.11 b/g Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)


and the only relative thing i can find in dmesg is:
Code:
ath_hal: 0.9.18.0 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413)
wlan: 0.9.4
ath_pci: 0.9.4
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:14:00.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:14:00.0 to 64
wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware didn't respond as expected' (HAL status 3)
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:14:00.0 disabled
ath_pci: driver unloaded
ath_pci: 0.9.4
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:14:00.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:14:00.0 to 64
wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware didn't respond as expected' (HAL status 3)
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:14:00.0 disabled


and
Code:
ndiswrapper version 1.50 loaded (smp=yes, preempt=no)
ndiswrapper: driver net5211 (,06/21/2007,5.3.0.56) loaded
ndiswrapper (ZwClose:2227): closing handle 0xf7778c28 not implemented
ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:191): log: C0001389, count: 4, return_address: f90dd0b4
ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:194): code: 0xf75dbc00
ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:194): code: 0x28
ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:194): code: 0xf886d000
ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:194): code: 0xf886d000
ndiswrapper (mp_init:216): couldn't initialize device: C000009A
ndiswrapper (pnp_start_device:439): Windows driver couldn't initialize the device (C0000001)
ndiswrapper (mp_halt:259): device f7cf5500 is not initialized - not halting
ndiswrapper: device eth%d removed
ndiswrapper: probe of 0000:14:00.0 failed with error -22
usbcore: registered new interface driver ndiswrapper


I realise that the ndiswrapper problem may be because I am using the 32 bit windows XP driver, but It used to work perfectly beofre! Perhaps I missed something in the kernel!

Any help would be appreciated please! Unless I get this thing working really fast I am going to face lots of trouble at school!

thanks in advance
YHS
