Eh bien j'ai essayé  de me servir de wireloss tools, assisstant 
graphique de suse, sans succès. Voilà les instructions que je devrais 
appliquer mais pour être francx je n'y comprends pas grand chose.
Pour un noyau 2.6 si quelqu'un pouvait me résumer l'essentiel? D'avance 
merci de votre aide...avec des commentaires en dessous ou à côté du 
readme, ce serait bien.


For 2.6 series kernel:
a.  run 'cd STA/Module'
       'cp ../2.6.x/Makefile .'

b.  $make -C /path/to/source SUBDIRS=$PWD modules
   Where /path/to/source is the path to the source directory for the 
(configured and built) target kernel.

c.  run '/sbin/insmod rt2500.ko'  (as root)
       '/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up'


For big endian platform:
a.  replace Makefile with Makefile.BigEndian



=======================================================================
To BUILD UTILITY
====================

a.  go to the "./Utility" directory

b.  run 'qmake -o Makefile raconfig2500.pro'
   If qmake command is not found in your system, you can download the 
QT tool
   'qt-x11-free-3.2.1' or later at
   http://www.trolltech.com/
  
   (qmake comes with RedHat 7.3 or later QT Package)   

c.  run 'make" to compile the utility source code.
 
d.  After all, an execution file would be generated "RaConfig2500"
   run "RaConfig2500" to config the driver as you want



=======================================================================
CONFIGURATION: 
====================
RT2500 driver can be configured via following interfaces,
i.e. (i)"iwconfig" command, (ii)"iwpriv" command, (iii) configuration 
file, (iv) RaConfig2500

i)  iwconfig comes with kernel. 
ii) iwpriv usage, please refer to file "iwpriv_usage.txt" for details.
iii)copy configuration file "RT2500STA.dat" to 
/etc/Wireless/RT2500STA/RT2500STA.dat.
   Please refer to 3.1) for details.
iv) RT2500 provides API : RaConfig2500, please go to directory ./Utility 
and refer to how-to-compile.txt

         
Configuration File : RT2500STA.dat

# Copy this file to /etc/Wireless/RT2500STA/RT2500STA.dat
# This file is a binary file and will be read on loading rt2500.o module.
#
# Use "vi -b RT2500STA.dat" to modify settings according to your need.
#
# 1.) set NetworkType to "Adhoc" for using Adhoc-mode, otherwise using 
as Infrastructure-mode
# 2.) set Channel to "0" for auto-select on Infrastructure mode
# 3.) set SSID for connecting to your Accss-point.
# 4.) AuthMode can be "OPEN", "SHARED", "WPAPSK", "WPANONE"
# 5.) EncrypType can be "NONE", "WEP", "TKIP", "AES"
# for more information refer to the Readme file.

MORE INFORMATION
=================================================================================
If you want for rt2500 driver to auto-load at boot time:
A) choose ra0 for first RT2500 WLAN card, ra1 for second RT2500 WLAN 
card, etc.
 
B) create(edit) 'ifcfg-ra0' file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/,     
  edit( or add the line) in /etc/modules.conf:
      alias ra0 rt2500       
 
C) edit(create) the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ra0 
  DEVICE='ra0'
  ONBOOT='yes'    


NOTE:
  if you use dhcp, add this line too .
   BOOTPROTO='dhcp'

*D) To ease the Default Gateway setting,
   add the line
   GATEWAY=x.x.x.x  
   in /etc/sysconfig/network
