A driver for 802.11b wireless cards based on the "Hermes" or |
|
Intersil HFA384x (Prism 2) MAC controller. This includes the vast |
|
majority of the PCMCIA 802.11b cards (which are nearly all rebadges) |
|
- except for the Cisco/Aironet cards. Cards supported include the |
|
Apple Airport (not a PCMCIA card), WavelanIEEE/Orinoco, |
|
Cabletron/EnteraSys Roamabout, ELSA AirLancer, MELCO Buffalo, Avaya, |
|
IBM High Rate Wireless, Farralon Syyline, Samsung MagicLAN, Netgear |
|
MA401, LinkSys WPC-11, D-Link DWL-650, 3Com AirConnect, Intel |
|
IPW2011, and Symbol Spectrum24 High Rate amongst others. |
|
|
|
This option includes the guts of the driver, but in order to |
|
actually use a card you will also need to enable support for PCMCIA |
|
Hermes cards, PLX9052 based PCI adaptors or the Apple Airport below. |
|
|
|
You will also very likely also need the Wireless Tools in order to |
|
configure your card and that /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts works : |

config HERMES_PRISM |

bool "Support Prism 2/2.5 chipset" |
|
depends on HERMES |
|
help |
|
|
|
Say Y to enable support for Prism 2 and 2.5 chipsets. These |
|
chipsets are better handled by the hostap driver. This driver |
|
would not support WPA or firmware download for Prism chipset. |
|
|
|
If you are not sure, say N. |

|
config HERMES_CACHE_FW_ON_INIT |

bool "Cache Hermes firmware on driver initialisation" |

depends on HERMES |
|
default y |
|
help |
|
Say Y to cache any firmware required by the Hermes drivers |
|
on startup. The firmware will remain cached until the |
|
driver is unloaded. The cache uses 64K of RAM. |
|
|
|
Otherwise load the firmware from userspace as required. In |
|
this case the driver should be unloaded and restarted |
|
whenever the firmware is changed. |
|
|
|
If you are not sure, say Y. |

config APPLE_AIRPORT |

tristate "Apple Airport support (built-in)" |

|
help |
|
Say Y here to support the Airport 802.11b wireless Ethernet hardware |
|
built into the Macintosh iBook and other recent PowerPC-based |
|
Macintosh machines. This is essentially a Lucent Orinoco card with |
|
a non-standard interface. |
|
|
|
This driver does not support the Airport Extreme (802.11b/g). Use |
|
the BCM43xx driver for Airport Extreme cards. |

help |
|
Enable support for PCMCIA cards supported by the "Hermes" (aka |
|
orinoco) driver when used in PLX9052 based PCI adaptors. These |
|
adaptors are not a full PCMCIA controller but act as a more limited |
|
PCI <-> PCMCIA bridge. Several vendors sell such adaptors so that |
|
802.11b PCMCIA cards can be used in desktop machines. The Netgear |
|
MA301 is such an adaptor. |

help |
|
Enable support for PCI and mini-PCI 802.11b wireless NICs based on |
|
the Prism 2.5 chipset. These are true PCI cards, not the 802.11b |
|
PCMCIA cards bundled with PCI<->PCMCIA adaptors which are also |
|
common. Some of the built-in wireless adaptors in laptops are of |
|
this variety. |

A driver for "Hermes" chipset based PCMCIA wireless adaptors, such |
|
as the Lucent WavelanIEEE/Orinoco cards and their OEM (Cabletron/ |
|
EnteraSys RoamAbout 802.11, ELSA Airlancer, Melco Buffalo and |
|
others). It should also be usable on various Prism II based cards |
|
such as the Linksys, D-Link and Farallon Skyline. It should also |
|
work on Symbol cards such as the 3Com AirConnect and Ericsson WLAN. |

This is a driver for 802.11b cards using RAM-loadable Symbol |
|
firmware, such as Symbol Wireless Networker LA4100, CompactFlash |
|
cards by Socket Communications and Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B. |

This driver requires firmware download on startup. Utilities |
