Hi all

I got no problem loading my driver, but when I try to set the ssid with
iwconfig i get the following message:

hub:/# iwconfig eth1 essid "net"
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 90
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 80
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 70
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 60
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 50
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 40

islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 20
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 10
islpci_mgt_response(): queue empty, retrying (jiffies left = 0
Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
    SET failed on device eth1 ; Connection timed out.

My system is a Pentium 133 with the SMC2802W pci card.

I also get an error in the boot message, but I don't know if it's related:

Starting hotplug subsystem: input** can't synthesize input events -
/proc/bus/input/devices missing
pci** can't synthesize pci hotplug events
.usb

Any help would be appreciated.
