Has anyone recompiled those rpms? I just upgraded to severn and 'forgot'
that I need wlan, and those old rh 9.0 packages won't work =). I'm using
dlink dwl-650.

There were a couple of extra steps I had to go through to get the SRPMs
of wlan-ng compiled on severn :
1) install the kernel-wlan-ng source RPM
2) install kernel-source RPM and edit the Makefile to remove the
"custom" in the version
3) export linvers=$(uname -r)
4) rpmbuild -ba kernel-wlan-ng --arch=i686 (or whatever your arch is)
You should be good to go. At least I have been at home.

I don't have the
recessary stuff to recompile. Is it possible that you
could send me those? I'm in a closet writing this mail...=)

I get this message when installing kernel-wlan-ng-usb-0.2.0-7.i686.rpm
ACHTUNG! ATTENTION! WARNING!
YOU MUST configure /etc/wlan/wlan.conf to define your SSID!
YOU ALSO must configure /etc/wlan/wlancfg-SSID to match WAP settings!
(---> replace SSID in filename with the value of your SSID)
But I have no /etc/wlan/wlancfg-SSID. Do they mean /etc/wlan/wlancfg-DEFAULT?

Not exactly. wlancfg-DEFAULT is the fallback config file. For each ESSID
you define in wlan.conf, you should make a wlancfg-ESSID file (i.e. for
the "home" ESSID, I should make a wlancfg-home file) that contains any
site-specific settings (WEP keys, etc).
Complete details are in the wlan.conf file, as well as
/usr/share/doc/kernel-wlan-ng-0.2.0/doc/config.linux-wlan-ng

Thanks.
So the "warning" might better read:

Probably. I'll forward this to the guy who wrote the SRPM - I just
recompiled it :)
