[lwlan-user] dlink dwl-650: wlan-ng or not?

[Antti]

Hi!

This card worked fine with rh 8.0 and wlan-ng rpm packages, but I was'nt
able to edit and change the configuration for this card since the card
was titled wlan0 instead of eth1 and I suppose redhat's network conf
doesn't see wlan* devices????

Now I have upgraded rh 8.0 to 9.0. The card was detected and it uses
orinoco_cs instead of prism_cs. All works fine but I get these lines in
messages:
 
eth1: error -110 reading Rx descriptor. Frame dropped.
eth1: Error -110 writing packet header to BAP
eth1: Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP

..and the net goes down. But after unplugging the card it works fine a
little while.

So should I put the rpms in and use the great prism_cs driver or do I
fix something in my current set up? What options do I got? Can I make
the prism driver to work with 'eth1' instead of 'wlan0'? 

I want to change the wlan configurations easily. I suppose this could be
done with cardctl?!?
