Prism2.device on OS4 Anyone?
« on: August 06, 2008, 01:16:38 PM »
How do - im trying to get my Prism2 based WiFi PCMCIA card to work under OS 4 - I've installed the Prism2.lha file located on Aminet (puts the drivers in the right place) - Ive edited my user-startup to set the Prism2Defaults yet it still doesn't find my device?

Has anyone got setup their prism2 on os4, or would know how to install this manually?

I can't wait to start browsin the net, setting up ftp etc etc

cheers Chris - tried copying the prism2.device file to Devs/Networks and the pccard.library file to Libs: but it just makes my system freeze when trying to look for it during the 'New Connection' software in OS 4

I'm assuming that I need to ignore the MOS directory as thats for MorphOS right?

getting closer - it seems to pass the 'test' when adding the device using the 'New Connection' wizard. Yet, when I go to save the device config file as PRISM2 it hangs? Only just this second tried it - could it be an invalid file name or summat?

hmmm bizzare - still wont work - basically says input/output error - cant open port 0

Card worked fine in os 3.9 with the prism2.device file for that, which I downloaded from Aminet... so I know the cards ok....

Do I need CardReset or CardPatch maybe?
