You need to enable nonfree media

CC: (none) => tmb

Comment 2 Zhon 2012-04-22 21:39:57 CEST 
nonfree media is enabled...
Comment 3 Manuel Hiebel 2012-04-22 21:42:20 CEST 
can you attach your /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg

Component: Release (media or process) => RPM Packages

Also, using the KDE 4 network connections I can connect to wifi just fine.  The same is also true in the gnome desktop environment.  It is only drakconnect that isn't working.

ok seems this line 116 	package => "ipw3945-ucode",

No, this line is for a deprecated module.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

This error was obtained while testing the RC of mageia 2 on an old 32bit laptop I have.  I do not know if the problem persists on mageia 2 as I have not installed it on that laptop.
Comment 11 Manuel Hiebel 2012-07-06 20:23:27 CEST 
ok, it should be fixed anyway (between rc and stable iirc, if not feel free to reopenp

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
