AFAIK, the RT2500 (and others of the RT2X-series) -Wlan-driver is supportet since gml0.9 or earlier by a grml-package. Can You tell me, if there's an package for the RT61-driver of Ralink in grml1.1. At the moment, my notebook uses Debian etch with a PCMCIA-Wlan-card with RT61 - it works, but it was a little bit difficult to manage it. I would be great, to install grml on these notebook.

rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml isn't included within grml 1.1 because we had too many conflicts with rt2400-modules-2.6.23-grml and rt2500-modules-2.6.23-grml. I'd like to investigate on that in the next few days/weeks with people having the appropriate hardware (please let me know if you are such a person :)).

I've uploaded rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml for you to grml-testing pool which provides the module:

/lib/modules/2.6.23-grml/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt61pci.ko

So just grab http://deb.grml.org/pool/main/r/rt2x00/rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml_2.0.12%2bg...

and give it a try. Please let me know whether it works for you.

...and not to forget: grml1.1 - great work - congratulations to the team around Mika!

Thanks :)

regards, -mika-

Hi Mika & friends!

I've asked a few days ago for rt61-wlan-driver-support in grml. Now I've tried the package provided - and the module seems to work! I'm afraid, still I couldn't manage to get my wlan to work. I have to use WPA-PSK.

This is, what I've done: - wget your deb - dpkg -i the deb - modprobe rt61pci - rename the /etc/wlan/wlancfg-DEFAULT in wlancfg-myssid (with my ssid) - setting dot11ExcludeUnencrypted to false in the wlan-cfg-myssid because of not using wep - setting SSID_wlan0="myssid" in /etc/wlan/wlan.conf - typing ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ssid="myssid" scan_ssid=1 proto=WPA key_mgmt=WPA-PSK pairwise=TKIP group=TKIP psk="mypassword"} (with my phrase) in my /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf - adding auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp (dhcp is running in my network) wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf to my /etc/network/interfaces. Now, iwconfig wlan0 shows my essid and an encryption-key, but I'm not able to ping. Strange is, that after typing wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -d, the iwconfig wlan0 command shows Encryption key:off. Perhaps, here tht problem is to find...?

Do you, Mika, or someone else have an idea, why it still doesn't work? Thanks for all the help you gave and give! Andi
