Forum Debian Users Gang

Witam. mam taki problem. Posiadam kartę sieciową Edimax i starownik do niej na Debiana, ale zarówno znajomość angielskiego jak i linuxa nie jest u mnie najlepsza. Nie rozumiem co mam zrobić. Wiem że należało by zacząć od nauki podstawowych komend ale potrzebuję do tego linuxa i internetu a bez tej karty nie mam dojścia do netu. Jeżeli ktoś mógłby mi pomóc ja zainstalować byłbym bardzo wdzięczny. Prosiłbym o dokładne wyjaśnienie. poniżej przedstawiam plik readme do sterownika. Dodam że mam jądro 2.6

=======================================================================
ModelName:
===========
rt61


=======================================================================
Supporting Kernel:
===================
linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 series.
Tested in Redhat 7.3 or later.


=======================================================================
Description:
=============
This is a linux device driver for Ralink RT61 a/b/g WLAN Card.



=======================================================================
Contents:
=============
./2.4x                : Makefile for kernel 2.4 series
./2.6x                : Makefile for kernel 2.6 series
*.c                    : c files
*.h                    : header files
Makefile.RTL865x    : Makefile for big endian platform



=======================================================================
Features:
==========
   This driver implements basic IEEE802.11. Infrastructure and adhoc mode with open or shared or
   WPA-PSK authentication method. NONE, WEP, TKIP and AES encryption.



=======================================================================
Build Instructions: 
====================
For 2.4 series kernel:
a. $tar -xvzf RT61_Linux_STA_Drv_x.x.x.x.tar.gz
    go to "./RT61_Linux_STA_Drv_x.x.x.x/Module" directory.
   
b. Use 'chmod' command to change access right of following script files :
   'load', 'unload', 'Configure'

c. run 'cp ../2.4x/Makefile .'
d. $make config         # config build linux os version

e. $make all            # compile driver source code

f. $cp RT2561.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/    # copy firmware
   $cp RT2561S.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/
   $cp RT2661.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/

g. $load                # load/insmod module(rt61.o)

Note: Script functionality:
load            load module to kernel
unload          unload module from kernel
Configure       retrieve linux version


For 2.6 series kernel:
a.  run 'cd STA/Module'
        'cp ../2.6x/Makefile .'

b. $make all

c. $cp RT2561.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/    # copy firmware
   $cp RT2561S.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/
   $cp RT2661.bin /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/
   
d.  run '/sbin/insmod rt61.ko'  (as root)
        '/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up'


For big endian platform:
a.  replace Makefile with Makefile.RTL865x
 


=======================================================================
CONFIGURATION: 
====================
RT61 driver can be configured via following interfaces,
i.e. (i)"iwconfig" command, (ii)"iwpriv" command, (iii) configuration file

i)  iwconfig comes with kernel. 
ii) iwpriv usage, please refer to file "iwpriv_usage.txt" for details.
iii)copy configuration file "RT61STA.dat" to /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/RT61STA.dat.

           
Configuration File : RT61STA.dat
---------------------------------------
# Copy this file to /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/RT61STA.dat
# This file is a binary file and will be read on loading rt.o module.
#
# Use "vi -b RT61STA.dat" to modify settings according to your need.
#
# 1.) set NetworkType to "Adhoc" for using Adhoc-mode, otherwise using Infrastructure
# 2.) set Channel to "0" for auto-select on Infrastructure mode
# 3.) set SSID for connecting to your Accss-point.
# 4.) AuthMode can be "WEPAUTO", "OPEN", "SHARED", "WPAPSK", "WPANONE"
# 5.) EncrypType can be "NONE", "WEP", "TKIP", "AES"
# for more information refer to the Readme file.
#
# The word of "Default" must not be removed

MORE INFORMATION
=================================================================================
If you want for rt61 driver to auto-load at boot time:
A) choose ra0 for first RT61 WLAN card, ra1 for second RT61 WLAN card, etc.
   
B) create(edit) 'ifcfg-ra0' file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/,     
   edit( or add the line) in /etc/modules.conf:
       alias ra0 rt61       
   
C) edit(create) the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ra0 
   DEVICE='ra0'
   ONBOOT='yes'     


NOTE:
   if you use dhcp, add this line too .
    BOOTPROTO='dhcp'

*D) To ease the Default Gateway setting,
    add the line
    GATEWAY=x.x.x.x   
    in /etc/sysconfig/network
