I am trying to get a DLINK DWL-650+ card working on my laptop.  It is
running RedHat 7.2, kernel  2.4.18-10.  Here are the relevant packages:

kernel-wlan-ng-pcmcia-0.1.15-6
kernel-wlan-ng-0.1.15-6
kernel-wlan-ng-modules-rh73.10-0.1.15-6
kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.27-10

I installed the rpm's from the link I followed on the wlan-ng web
site, restarted pcmcia and here's what I get:

Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost cardmgr[1346]: starting, version is 3.1.22
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost cardmgr[1346]: config error, file './wlan-ng.conf' line 2: no function bindings
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost cardmgr[1346]: watching 2 sockets
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0c00-0x0cff: clean.
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0100-0x04ff: excluding 0x170-0x177 0x370-0x37f 0x388-0x38f 0x4d0-0x4d7

Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost cardmgr[1346]: initializing socket 0
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost cardmgr[1346]: socket 0: Wireless Network CardBus PC Card
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost kernel: prism2_cs: GetFirstTuple: No more items
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost kernel: prism2sta_config: NextTuple failure? It's probably a Vcc mismatch.
Feb 10 19:57:31 localhost kernel: prism2sta_event: prism2_cs: Initialization failed!
Feb 10 19:57:33 localhost cardmgr[1346]: get dev info on socket 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable

The first few lines of wlan-ng.conf are:


device "prism2_cs"
   class "wlan-ng" module "prism2_cs"

card "Wireless Network CardBus PC Card"
   manfid 0x0097, 0x8402
   bind "prism2_cs"

As you can see, the card does not get initialised.  Can anyone point me in
the right direction?

Thanks a lot,

Rob
