You need to put in the latest firmware for the ipw3945 wireless. The one you have in 6.0 doesn't cut it. The new one (iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode) does.

That would explain the problems I'm having with my toshiba laptop. It uses ipw3945 and it simply will not connect.

You got that right bud. I beat my head against the wall on that myself. Google for the file and it should give you a link to the Intel page to download it


Here's the package your looking for iwlwifi-3945-ucode-15.28.1.8.tgz.

Thanks Gamfa, my wifi is now up and running.

In preperation for the release of 6.0 the veclinux-current repo has been renamed to http://vectorlinux.osuosl.org/veclinux-6.0

If you are using one of the older 6.0 releases you will need to update your /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc

Installed VL6.0-STD-A0.35.iso and found that I could not print with my parallel printer
connected to an USB port via an adapter cable.


In cups the entry in devices for USB printer connections is missing. It is present in VL-5.8
and slackware-12.1.

Installing from hosted iso the installation went fine until it reached the point for lilo. The screen
started scrolling showing all kind of .tgz programs running diagonally. When it stopped
I scrolled up found the lilo window entered my 'Do not install lilo' and continued from there.

Glad to see that at last xterm is behaving as it is intended to do. :-)

Regards

Got printer working. Copied from slackware-12.1 cupsd, /etc/cups and /usr/lib/cups over
and set ../rc.hald executable.

Cheers to me.
