[driverloader] Help, please. Linksys WPC54G stopped working

[Linuxant support]

Hi,

I would like to add a precision.

It is preferable to use the command "modprobe driverloader" to load the
module.

If the module does not load automatically when you try to bring up the
interface with "ifup $ifname", verify that you have an "alias $ifname
driverloader" entry in '/etc/modules.conf' (2.4) or '/etc/modprobe.conf'
(2.6) .

Also, make sure that the output from "sysctl kernel.modprobe" is not
"/bin/true". If it is the case, then you will need to edit the
'/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit' script and apply the following change.

---
- if ! LC_ALL=C grep -iq nomodules /proc/cmdline 2>/dev/null && [ -f
/proc/ksyms ]; then

+ if ! strstr "$cmdline" nomodules && [ -f /proc/modules ] ; then
---

Jim,
  This is the same problem I am having.  If as root you enter "insmod
driverloader eth0" and it loads your wireless card try putting "insmod
driverloader eth0" in the /etc/rc.d/rc.local as a work around for now.
