    persistent pcmcia wlan configuration?

    Hi,

    I have this computer here which has a knoppix 3.7 hdd install (works great).

    Now I put a pcmcia wlan card in. I can configure it with netcardconfig and wlanconfig just fine. It's eth0.

    But how do I make this machine activate this interface at bootup?

    I noticed that the wlan configuration is stored in /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts. This file is called from /etc/pcmcia/wireless, which itself is called from /etc/pcmcia/network.
    Question 1: How do I start this script easiest at bootup?
    Question 2: If I run /etc/pcmcia/network start eth0 manually, it fails (if simply gives me the usage hints, as if I had some parameters wrong). What's the problem there? I noticed that this script is only run from wlan-ng, which seems to be able to handle only prism2 cards (I have an smc card with a driver I downloaded somewhere else).

    Open a terminal and type in "man interfaces".This will give you the
    manual page for this config file.
    If you get stumped,post again and I'll try to help.

    Good Luck
