Ubuntu: ThinkPad SL400的无线上网问题

话说,前几天跟死党们一起去图书馆准备享受无线上网的乐趣(之前大家说好,拿着四台本,然后一起去图书馆玩QQ游戏,呵呵)。

结果,唯独我的笔记本连无线都开不了,汗...记得刚买笔记本的时候成功使用过无线上网,难道那时还是Vista?

无奈之下,还是只能求助于万能的Google:

于是,找到了 madwifi 这个东东,介绍见: madwifi.org

"This software contains a Linux kernel driver for Atheros-based Wireless LAN devices.  The driver supports station, AP, ad-hoc, and monitor modes
of operation.  The Atheros driver depends on a device-independent implementation of the 802.11 protocols that originated in the BSD
community (NetBSD in particular)."

运行lspci找到如下结果:

Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)

安装Madwifi(具体内容参考INSTALL):

下载最新的madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6

sudo make clean

sudo make

sudo make install

sudo modprobe ath_pci

sudo gedit /etc/modules文件,在最后加上一行: ath_pci
