Description of problem: It is overly complicated to configure the following wireless device using neat: 02:02.0 Network controller: Harris Semiconductor Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01) Subsystem: Intel Corp. Wireless 802.11b MiniPCI Adapter Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Note that this device uses the orinoco_pci module. In neat, click on the Hardware tab, click New, then select Hardware Type of Wireless. This generates the following message: Warning. Sorry, there is nothing to be edited, or this type cannot be edited yet. If this is the case, the Hardware Type of Wireless probably shouldn't be available, and even if so, shouldn't be the default option. Then I tried to setup the wireless device by clicking on the Devices tab, clicking New, then selecting Device Type of Wireless connection. The orinoco_pci device was not listed; the only option is Other Wireless Card. Selecting that, I do not see an option listed for my wireless card. The one way I was able to edit the wireless device was to edit /etc/modules.conf and add the following line: alias eth1 orinoco_pci it is then possible to edit the wireless connection with neat. This is overly complicated and shouldn't be unnecessary. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-network-1.1.97-1 (in Phoebe 8.0.94) How reproducible: 100%
Can you please attach the output of: $ python -c 'import kudzu;print kudzu.probe(kudzu.CLASS_NETWORK, kudzu.BUS_UNSPEC,kudzu.PROBE_ALL);'
# python -c 'import kudzu;print kudzu.probe(kudzu.CLASS_NETWORK,kudzu.BUS_UNSPEC,kudzu.PROBE_ALL);' [Desc: Harris Semiconductor|Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset Driver: orinoco_pci Device: None , Desc: Intel Corp.|82801CAM (ICH3) PRO/100 VE (LOM) Ethernet Controller Driver: e100 Device: eth ]
can you please retry with 1.2.15, which should be available today as an update
