    changing MAC on knoppix 3.4 orinoco

    my prism 2 based lancard is driven with ORINOCO driver by knoppix 3.4 which on windows use INTERSIL driver.

    the prob is all the network thing goes just fine except when i try to change my MAC.

    either with macchanger or ifconfig eth0 hw ether xxxxxxx, in both case i get segmentation fault and network card stops working. even with another console su doesnt work and halts.

    is there any solution for that ?? on knoppix ?? i'm afraid if i have to patch the kernel somehow with orinoco driver patch, how would i do that ??

    thank u all,
    waiting for a reply with solution.

    Which kernel do you use? I had the same problem with another card, and switching from Kernel 2.4.x to 2.6.x solved it for me.

    thanks for the quick reply mate.

    i tried to start with KNOPPIX26 / LINUX26 startup option with teh knoppix 3.4 i got

    as u've told that 2.6 kernel might just help me get the MAC changing prob fixed, but i couldnt even start it up ... the kernel decompresses .. and everything just stalls to a blank screen.

    any solution
