''lspci'' shows |

<pre> |
|||
00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20) |

|||
'''driver isssues''' |
|||
first, my debian lenny (02/2010) loads the kernel module called 8180.ko |
|||
<pre> |
|||
/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8180.ko |
|||
</pre> |
|||
this driver works, but the signal strengh is shown as not very stable. |
|||
so i downloaded the proprietary [http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/| driver.] |
|||
what i got was: |
|||
<pre> |
|||
rtl8185_linux_26.1031.1207.2009.release.tar.gz |
|||
</pre> |
|||
after unpacking and entering the directory i had to type a "make" and a "make install" to install the new kernel module: |
|||
<pre> |
|||
/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/r8185b.ko |
|||
</pre> |
|||
now i had to make sure, that the correct kernel-module is loaded by boot-time. |
|||
so i put r8185b into /etc/modules |
|||
and to prevent the wrong kernel module to be loaded i hat to wipe out the line |
|||
<pre> |
|||
[...] |
|||
/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8180.ko |
|||
[...] |
|||
</pre> |
|||
in the file |
|||
/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/modules.dep |
|||
warning: if you run the command '''depmod''' this line will be inserted into modules.dep again. |
