  13. A driver for 802.11b wireless cards based on the "Hermes" or
  14. Intersil HFA384x (Prism 2) MAC controller. This includes the vast
  15. majority of the PCMCIA 802.11b cards (which are nearly all rebadges)
  16. - except for the Cisco/Aironet cards. Cards supported include the
  17. Apple Airport (not a PCMCIA card), WavelanIEEE/Orinoco,
  18. Cabletron/EnteraSys Roamabout, ELSA AirLancer, MELCO Buffalo, Avaya,
  19. IBM High Rate Wireless, Farralon Syyline, Samsung MagicLAN, Netgear
  20. MA401, LinkSys WPC-11, D-Link DWL-650, 3Com AirConnect, Intel
  21. IPW2011, and Symbol Spectrum24 High Rate amongst others.
  22. This option includes the guts of the driver, but in order to
  23. actually use a card you will also need to enable support for PCMCIA
  24. Hermes cards, PLX9052 based PCI adaptors or the Apple Airport below.
  25. You will also very likely also need the Wireless Tools in order to
  26. configure your card and that /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts works :

  31. ---help---
  32. Say Y to enable support for Prism 2 and 2.5 chipsets. These
  33. chipsets are better handled by the hostap driver. This driver
  34. would not support WPA or firmware download for Prism chipset.
  35. If you are not sure, say N.
  36. config HERMES_CACHE_FW_ON_INIT

  39. default y
  40. ---help---
  41. Say Y to cache any firmware required by the Hermes drivers
  42. on startup. The firmware will remain cached until the
  43. driver is unloaded. The cache uses 64K of RAM.
  44. Otherwise load the firmware from userspace as required. In
  45. this case the driver should be unloaded and restarted
  46. whenever the firmware is changed.
  47. If you are not sure, say Y.
  48. config APPLE_AIRPORT

  51. help
  52. Say Y here to support the Airport 802.11b wireless Ethernet hardware
  53. built into the Macintosh iBook and other recent PowerPC-based
  54. Macintosh machines. This is essentially a Lucent Orinoco card with
  55. a non-standard interface.
  56. This driver does not support the Airport Extreme (802.11b/g). Use
  57. the BCM43xx driver for Airport Extreme cards.

  62. Enable support for PCMCIA cards supported by the "Hermes" (aka
  63. orinoco) driver when used in PLX9052 based PCI adaptors. These
  64. adaptors are not a full PCMCIA controller but act as a more limited
  65. PCI <-> PCMCIA bridge. Several vendors sell such adaptors so that
  66. 802.11b PCMCIA cards can be used in desktop machines. The Netgear
  67. MA301 is such an adaptor.

  89. Enable support for PCI and mini-PCI 802.11b wireless NICs based on
  90. the Prism 2.5 chipset. These are true PCI cards, not the 802.11b
  91. PCMCIA cards bundled with PCI<->PCMCIA adaptors which are also
  92. common. Some of the built-in wireless adaptors in laptops are of
  93. this variety.

  98. A driver for "Hermes" chipset based PCMCIA wireless adaptors, such

  100. EnteraSys RoamAbout 802.11, ELSA Airlancer, Melco Buffalo and
  101. others). It should also be usable on various Prism II based cards
  102. such as the Linksys, D-Link and Farallon Skyline. It should also
  103. work on Symbol cards such as the 3Com AirConnect and Ericsson WLAN.
  104. You will very likely need the Wireless Tools in order to

  112. firmware, such as Symbol Wireless Networker LA4100, CompactFlash
  113. cards by Socket Communications and Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B.
