Hi all-
It has an Atheros AR242X wireless card. I'd read on one of the forums
that this would work 'out-of-the-box' will 11.1, but that doesn't seem
to be the case.
Hi Doctor :-)
I don't have the wifi card AR242x but my another chipset of Atheros
card will be work like a charm by using madwifi driver.
1. Disable or blacklist ath5k driver by add the blacklist ath5k to
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
2. Open konsole or terminal
3. Install the driver
su
zypper in kernel-source make gcc gcc-c++
wget -c http://internode.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/madwifi/madwifi-0.9.4.tar.gz
tar -zxvf madwifi-0.9.4.tar.gz
cd madwifi-0.9.4
make
make install
modprobe ath_pci
reboot
After reboot, you should be configure the wifi from YAST | Network
Devices | Network Settings
