sir i typed the command bash wirelessdetector.sh and my relative file is in desktop but it messaged file or directory not found sir please help me

bob, 2009/01/28 17:48

I'm going to try your nice script on my new TP W700, trying to get Linux to recognize its wireless card…

Meanwhile, I rearranged it so I could see what it was doing a bit better, and — I think — make it more easily maintainable. Also shorter: about 33KB versus almost 83KB.

If you're interested, my modification is visible here: < montcs.bloomu.edu/~bobmon/Personal/Thinkpads/wireless.sh >

Thanks for the code!

Umm, this looks like it's running under VirtualPC. You can't configure the wireless this way.

The computer has a dual boot. Is there anyway to grab XP device driver?
I know nothing about Win$ and ndiswrapper, but there is perhaps a way to use the driver with ndiswrapper. No ?

Best regards,

Benji.

Compaq 6515b wireless not detected

Hi,
I have read your article about installing wireless driver for compaq 6515b. I downloaded the Win xp driver. Unfortunately, it does not work. ndiswrapper said “no hardware supporting bcmwl5 ndiswrapper module is present”

This is the output of your program…

Unknown line at line 2389 // which is kinda strange since your code is “only” 1817 lines

Hmmm, from that device listing I can not see a wireless controller at all. Not sure what I can say beyond that.

Thanks Akshay,

I have updated the utility to support this card. You have the Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8197 Wireless Adapter. You will probably need to use the ndiswrapper module for this.
