Description Brad Knowles 2002-10-08 01:40:00 UTC
Asante' FriendlyNet AeroLAN AL1011 802.11b WiFi WLAN PCMCIA card configuration not found in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf.  This is a standard Prism2 card.

Fix: 

Add the following to /etc/pccard.conf (well, /etc/defaults/pccard.conf):

# Asante' FriendlyNet AeroLAN AL1011 802.11b WiFi WLAN PCMCIA card (Prism2)
card "FriendlyNET AeroLAN Wireless PCMCIA Adapter " " "
	config auto "wi" ?
	insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
	remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop


Note: You need the trailing space after "Adapter " and the blank space between the last set of double quotes.  Otherwise, the strings won't match when the driver scans the card.  Also, this seems to make the card take IRQ 3, which conflicts with my Belkin F5D5020 10/100 Base-TX PCMCIA card, and I have not yet figured out a way to get them both working at the same time.  If there is any way to get this to try other IRQs as well as #3, that would be great to add to the entry in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf.
How-To-Repeat: Insert card, get the following error:

No card in database for "FriendlyNET AeroLAN Wireless PCMCIA Adapter "(" ")
