Kernel panic with "iwconfig wlan0 key restricted"
|
|
|
| Hi all
I try to configure my wifi device to connect to my access point.
When I type "sudo iwconfig wlan0 key restricted", the computer froze.
Moreover, if I configure this mode in "/etc/network/interfaces”, I have a
kernel panic at startup.
Does anybody know why?
I have Ubuntu 6.10 (i386) on a Core 2 Duo computer. The wifi receiver is
embedded in my ASUS P5V-VM DH motherboard. My acces point is an Inventel
DW-B-200.
Thank you for your answers.

What linux version?
Use 'uname -a'
What WiFi-card do you have?
Use 'lspci' for PCI-cards and 'lsusb' for USB-devices. You might
also want to add option '-v' to them,
as with 'lspci -v'
Have you looked into you logs?
Look into /var/log/kernel /var/log/syslog etc for relevant
informations.
