Saying Y here also enables the Wireless Extensions (creates
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/net/wireless and enables iwconfig access). The Wireless
|
|
|
|
|
Extension is a generic API allowing a driver to expose to the user
|
|
|
|
|
space configuration and statistics specific to common Wireless LANs.
|
|
|
|
|
The beauty of it is that a single set of tool can support all the
|
|
|
|
|
variations of Wireless LANs, regardless of their type (as long as
|
|
|
|
|
the driver supports Wireless Extension). Another advantage is that
|
|
|
|
|
these parameters may be changed on the fly without restarting the
|
|
|
|
|
driver (or Linux). If you wish to use Wireless Extensions with
|
|
|
|
|
wireless PCMCIA (PC-) cards, you need to say Y here; you can fetch
|

Say Y if you have a Metricom radio and intend to use Starmode Radio
|
|
|
|
|
IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
|
|
|
|
|
(on the WWW at <http://mosquitonet.stanford.edu/>) to send Internet
|
|
|
|
|
traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are small, battery
|
|
|
|
|
powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about the size and
|
|
|
|
|
weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard them called
|
|
|
|
|
"Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because it misleads
|
|
|
|
|
many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom modem into a
|
|
|
|
|
phone line and use it as a modem.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
|
|
|
|
|
it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you
|
|
|
|
|
think you might get a Metricom radio in the future, there is no harm
|
|
|
|
|
in saying Y to STRIP now, except that it makes the kernel a bit
|
|
|
|
|
bigger.

www.Telxon.com chip, which is also used on several similar cards.

This driver is tested on the 655 and IC2200 series cards. Look at

The driver is built as two modules, arlan and arlan-proc. The latter

is the /proc interface and is not needed most of time.

If you enable this you will need a firmware file as well.
|
|
|
|
|
You will need to copy this to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/isl3890.
|
|
|
|
|
You can get this non-GPL'd firmware file from the Prism54 project page:
|
|
|
|
|
<http://prism54.org>
|
|
|
|
|
You will also need the /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent script from
|
|
|
|
|
a current hotplug package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: You need a motherboard with DMA support to use any of these cards
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
|
|
|
|

inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
|
|
|
|
|
say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module
|
|
|

will be called prism54.ko.
