Problem with TC2.9-RC2

<< < (3/3)

dondamiano:
Hello,
I'm trying to get the Wifi working on my laptop (Dell Latitude E4200), but I also have the same problem:
I installed different combination of extensions, but whatever I try, it doesn't work.
The card is an Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN
TinyCore is v 2.10

ifconfig -a  "sees" the interface wlan0, but when I try :
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
I get the following error message :
ifconfig SIOCGLIFFLAGS : no such file or directory

Currently, I only have the following extensions installed :
firmware-iwlwifi.tgz
wireless-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz

Anyone experienced the same thing or managed to have it working with an Intel 5100 ?

Thanks in advance

Arslan S.:
firmware-iwlwifi does not contain 5100 ucode

those listed here included only

Edit: iwlwifi-5000 supports 5100 i think wrong alarm :)

Arslan S.:
can you try an older version

copy to /lib/firmware
