Description Valentin Schäfer 2005-08-24 23:05:15 UTC
my d-link dwl-120 (revision E1) w-lan usb adapter cannot be used under suse 
10.0 beta 1 and 2. i wanted to install it and he found it, but as i wanted to 
configure it in yast, he first said that he has to install a package 
called "atmel-firmware" and after that he told me that the package was not 
found on the medium. after that i downloaded the firmware rpms from the 
berlios server and wanted to install them but the same error came. after that 
i downloaded a gzip package and wanted to start the installer in the console, 
but he cancelled with an error. he said that the "hotplug-services" or 
something like that is missing. totally frustrated, i copied the firmware into 
the right directory and was after a reboot able to configure my w-lan adapter 
via "iwconfig" (but still no success with yast), but my card doesn't want to 
connect her into my w-lan network...
am i just stupid or is this a bug that has to be fixed??
greets from munich,
Valentin Schäfer
