Intel 2915, no networks
Moises08:
So, the problem with my ecs 2.1 instalation is with wifi. If anyone don't know, i have an ibm x41 with intel 2915 adapter. The driver and genmac are installed qwithout any issues. The card is detected. But on xwlan 3.10 i can not find any wlan network while scanning, the list is empty. I have managed to instal xwlan 3.13, but all the options and menus are greyed out. What should i do?
Roderick Klein:
So the best of my understand the XWLAN in eCS 2.1 is antique so an upgrade is the first good step.
The issue you describe is a known bug. There are to many WiFi access, that is why your list is empty. This was fixed in later versions of XWLAN.
One important thing is that the Xlwan should be able tind the file genmac.dim, which is bascially a DLL to access the Genmac driver. That is the only thing I can think off why it can not find the hardware.
Did you also check lantran.log that the driver really loaded succesfully ?

Did you check step by step http://trac.netlabs.org/xwlan/browser/trunk/src/ship/readme.txt ?
The way I read your post I guess you stuck at #1

Everything is good, but how can anyone run yum install, without a network? Maybe is there any binary?
Moises08:
Ok, it was simple a conflict between xwlans, while i forgot to turn off old xwlan.
How can i delete an old xwlan completly? It states, that it is used in the system, so is unchangeble, even when disabled.
Sorry for totaly noob questions, i was a windows, mac and linux user, no experience with os/2.
