hello, I'm trying to run Slackware-current on my AMTEK T700 UMPC box. and from:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=664458

I know that the my box's wifi is WinBound's products.

I'm currently running kernel 2.6.28.7 now and have modprobed w35und.
and I also have a linksys usb wireless card on the USB port.

Now, the situation is Linksys's card can just work well. and the
Winbound card can't .

wlan1 is the WinBound card:

root@t700:~# dmesg |grep wlan1
udev: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlan1
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready

root@t700:~# iwlist wlan1 scan
wlan1 No scan results

root@t700:~# iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Scan completed :

does this mean that the winbound drivers in the kernel tree is not
ready for use ? or do we have any idea for make it work ?
