<div dir="ltr">Ok! Complicated, yesterday I spended 4 hours to get this working....<br><br>First of all, I installed my atheros with madwifi driver.<br>Then, I add the ath_pci module to auto loading list in modules<br>Then I uninstaled wicd (my preferred net aplication in Ubuntu 8.04) and instaled knetworkmanager<br>
In your case, to auto connect, if your card is working properly, you must install Wicd, it allow you to select a lot of profiles and it have auto connect option!<br><br>Bye<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/8/12 Robert Ramey <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ramey@rrsd.com">ramey@rrsd.com</a>></span><br>
