From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; T312461) Description of problem: kernel-2.4.17-0.13 (current rawhide) kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.27-12 (current rawhide) wireless-tools-21-4 (current rawhide) It appears that wireless drivers were built for Wireless Extension version 12, but the wireless-tools package is still version 11, which causes iwconfig to squawk. (Using an Addtron AWP-100 and orinoco_cs) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run iwconfig. Actual Results: #ika:i686# iwconfig eth0 Warning : Device eth0 has been compiled with version 12 of Wireless Extension, while we are using version 11. Some things may be broken... eth0 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"default" Nickname:"ika" [rest of iwconfig output appears nomal] Expected Results: Conditions causing warning should not exist. Additional info: Based on a cursory scan of http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html, it looks like the kernel is up to date, and it's probably just a simple matter of rebuilding the wireless-tools package for the kernel's version of Wireless Extension.
fixed in 23-2.
