[Bug 27604] Re: [madwifi] Thinkpad z60t wifi does not work

[Hubert Figuiere]

Matthew Garrett uploaded the new  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-22-386
that is supposed to contain both madwifi and madwifi-ng. It still does
not work. Here are the details:

PCI IDs are 0000:13:00.0 0200: 168c:1014 (rev 01)
They are recognized by madwifi but as you can see above, madwifi does not like it it. Same PCI ID, different behaviour.

Here is what I did:
-I did blacklist madwifi
-modprobe new_ath_pci
dmesg show the following
[4294779.161000] new_ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
[4294779.162000] new_ath_hal: 0.9.16.16 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413)
[4294779.204000] wlan: 0.8.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL)
[4294779.257000] wlan: 0.8.4.2 (svn 2006-05-16)
[4294779.259000] new_ath_rate_sample: 1.2 (svn 2006-05-16)
[4294779.268000] ath_pci: 0.9.4.5 (svn 2006-05-16)

-then I did add the PCI IDs to the driver with :
echo 168c:1014 >/sys/bus/pci/drivers/new_ath_pci/new_id
dmesg now shows 
[4294796.592000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:13:00.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 74
[4294796.592000] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:13:00.0 to 64
[4294796.592000] wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'No hardware present or device not yet supported' (HAL status 1)
[4294796.592000] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:13:00.0 disabled

Still nothing visibile with iwconfig.
