Hi...
I have just got a One, and have installed a standard distro (not Linpus),
Mandriva in my case.
Everything works pretty nicely but WiFi. Hardware is:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
The driver used is ath5k. On load, it logs this:
Aug 15 01:13:57 one klogd: ath5k_pci 0000:03:00.0: registered as 'phy0'
Aug 15 01:13:57 one klogd: ath5k phy0: Support for RF2425 is under development.
Aug 15 01:13:57 one klogd: ath5k phy0: Atheros AR2425 chip found (MAC: 0xe2, PHY: 0x70)
But when I try to connect, I see:
one:~# wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D wext
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS
CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS
wpa_supplicant.conf just has this:
network={
ssid="werewolf"
# scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA2
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="xxxxxx"
}
And the interface does not see any network. My router is a WRT54GL running
Tomato 1.21, and the wireless scan feature of tomato does not show the
emitter in the laptop.
One detail, the wifi light in the lid is not lit, and if I push the wifi
button I get this message:
Aug 15 01:34:16 one klogd: atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xd6 on isa0060/serio0).
Aug 15 01:34:16 one klogd: atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e056 <keycode>' to make it known.
Aug 15 01:34:16 one klogd: atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xd6 on isa0060/serio0).
Aug 15 01:34:16 one klogd: atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e056 <keycode>' to make it known.
Well, I thought I needed 'acerhk', so loaded it:
Aug 15 01:34:32 one klogd: input: Acer hotkey driver as /class/input/input9
Aug 15 01:34:33 one klogd: acerhk: Could not find model string, will assume type 200 series
Aug 15 01:34:33 one klogd: Acer Travelmate hotkey driver v0.5.35
But get the same messages.
So perhaps the problem is just that wifi is disabled, and I cant enable it
because an driver understands the codes from the button in the case.
Any idea ?
BTW, can I force the interface on when loading ath5k ?
TIA

I'm using 2.6.26.2 from Mandriva cooker.

The encryption fixes I know about for WPA should already be in 2.6.26. But
ath5k uses mac80211 for encryption so if it is encryption related, then it's
in the interface code between them, or else more wireless cards would have
the problem.

It looks like you didn't get any scan results. Does 'iwlist wlan0 scan'
work?
CCing ath5k-devel, you'll probably get more help there.

BTW the original report you said you were using AR2425. I believe
support for that was only added for 2.6.27.

2425 stuff went in after 2.6.26 was already released. Try linux-2.6.git.

Is this using WPA-PSK or WPA-EAP? I know my card works with PSK but I'm
seeing similar results with EAP. Haven't had time to properly analyze
the problem yet and my AP is in the office for the weekend.

PSK. I'll claim ignorance on EAP though I don't know why it wouldn't work.
The change I was thinking of in 2.6.26 was related to some packets not being
decrypted properly (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=121064141521711).
There was also this one related to association failures around .27-rc1:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=121732394028001.
Let us know what you find out.

Thanks to everyone that answered, probably the solution is an update to
the driver, hardware support for this chip was added in 27-rc.
My distro still uses 26.2.
I'm going on holydays for a week now, will make more tests on return,
and continue the thread.
Thanks everyone.
