Post subject:  Need help, wifi

Hi guys.

First of all thanks to the people that made this possible, I've got a perfekt running Knoppmyth on a Via Epia M10000. The only thing that lacks, is to get the wireless network running.

I've got the Dlink DWL-G122 usb adaptor, and it's actually working under knoppix, but i have to set it up manually everytime after a reboot. These are the commands I have to type in.

Code:
modprobe -r rt73usb
modprobe -r rt2570


To remove these to modules, then to load the rt73 module from serialmonkey's site.

Code:
modprobe -v  rt73


This set's up the right module for the usb key, after this i have to do

Code:
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig wlan0 essid my_essid
iwconfig wlan0 key my_key
dhclient


And then everything works.

I was thinking about to do a script in /etc/init.d, but there's probably a better way to do this. That's where you guys come in.

you can move rt73usb and rt2570 out of /lib/modules

and move the serialmonkey rt73 into the directory that the other two modules came out of..

put rt73 into /etc/modules (echo rt73 >> /etc/modules)

see:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiD ... linkRT2500

for how to edit /etc/interfaces file to setup the essid and key..
