good distro for fsam7440

Postby farga » Tue Apr 11, 2006 10:02 pm

Hi Friends! I'using SuSE 10 online installation with my fsam7440. I don't like how it administrates the power and (the most important), I've can't configure my WLAN. I'm new on linux, but is my favourite. Someone has worked with a linux distro with an easy configuration of WLAN card?
I've got to turn on the radio switch, but the system says..."no wlan interface found"
Thanks very much for any indication.

:D
Enjoying the best Sun in Valencia!!!!!

There's a kernel module "fsam7440" which lets you activate WLAN.

Please post the output of:
Code: Select all
lsmod

and
Code: Select all
ifconfig -a

Errors in these steps? Superuser (root)?
