Environment: thinkpad x61 laptop, CENTOS 5 OS
Problem: When access "System > Administration > Network" and try to active wireless wlan, following error occurs:
Determining IP information for wlan0...SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
Solution:
1. check wireless hardware model
>lspci | grep Wireless
#output is: Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection
#The wireless hardware is Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
2. add "RPMforge" yum repository
> wget http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm
> rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.*.rpm
3. install firmware
> yum list *firmware*
> yum install iwl3945-firmware
> (optional) rmmod iwl3945; modprobe iwl3945
After step 3, try to active wireless lan again, another error
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
4. close SElinux
Access "System > Administration > Security level and Firewall > SElinux tab", select "disabled" option.
5. set network manager on
1) open a shell, run following command
> system-config-services
2) in the popup window, tick "NetworkManager" node in the list, Click "save" button, and then click "Start" button.
这时,在desktop的右上角的tray icon里就会多了一个icon: wireless lan manager。通过它,你就可以上网了!
Note: if you restart linux, [Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06)] still happens before login interface is shown. Hence it is recommended that Untick "activate device when computer starts" option in "System > Administration > Network > double click wlan item"
