PCMCIA configuration Older distributions may ship with the wvlancs driver still enabled. To change the driver used by the distribution, it is sufficient to change the module binding the PCMCIA configuration. The author of orinococs supplies a file, hermes.conf, which contains card definitions for the cards supported by orinococs.

This page describes how to enable support for WiFi devices based on the Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) and Spectrum24 Trilogy (Symbol) chipsets; using the Orinoco driver on Debian systems.

This page is about the Orinoco driver. See Wikipedia for information about the ORiNOCO brand.
Driver
The Orinoco driver is a collection of modules providing support for various 802.11b devices, based on the Hermes I and Spectrum24 Trilogy chipsets:
- airport (supported devices)
- Supports the AirPort card (not AirPort Extreme).
- orinoco_cs (supported devices)
- Supports Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) PCMCIA/PC Card devices.
- orinoco_nortel (supported devices)
- Supports Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) PC Card devices using the Nortel PCI bridge.
- orinoco_plx (supported devices)
- Supports Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) PC Card devices using the PLX9052 PCI bridge.
- orinoco_tmd (supported devices)
- Supports Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) PC Card devices using the TMD7160 PCI bridge.
- orinoco_usb (supported devices)
- Supports Hermes I (Lucent/Agere) based USB devices.
- Introduced in Linux 2.6.35.
- spectrum_cs (supported devices)
- Supports Symbol Spectrum24 Trilogy-based PC Card and Compact Flash devices.
- Introduced in Linux 2.6.14.
Previous support for Prism 2/2.5/3 chipsets (orinoco_pci module) is disabled by default since Linux 2.6.351, see hostap for device support. For support of Prism-based USB 802.11b devices, see linux-wlan-ng.
As of Linux 2.6.28, downloading of firmware to volatile memory (RAM) and WPA support is available for Hermes I-based devices. For WPA support, firmware version 9.42 (or later) is required. The Orinoco driver will attempt to download firmware from userspace during device initialization.
Firmware is required to be provided for Spectrum24 Trilogy-based devices without flash memory (e.g. Intel WPC2011BWW, Socket Communications WL6000-320).
Installation
The Orinoco driver was introduced in Linux 2.4.3 and consists of modules in Debian Linux kernel images.
WPA (Hermes I only)
You can skip this section if WPA support is not required, or if your device has a Spectrum24 Trilogy chipset.
Firmware version 9.42 or later is required for WPA support:
- Add a 'non-free' component to /etc/apt/sources.list, for example:
- Update the list of available packages and install the firmware-linux-nonfree package:
- Continue with the procedure below.
General
- For users with Spectrum24 Trilogy-based devices only: firmware is required for devices without flash memory. This can be downloaded and extracted using the get_symbol_fw script available from orinoco-fwutils:Mystery Lake is one of the primary regions in The Long Dark and the first available for play in Survival mode.The region is named after Mystery Lake, a lake fed by the release of water from Carter Hydro Dam.A railway crosses the region and is mainly used in the summers supporting the local timber operation and lakeside recreation.

You can reach me on Twitter @toarda if you have questions. Mystery Lake map. Apr 07, 2020 Mystery Lake is the primary region in The Long Dark map. “Ideal for new players. A balance between wilderness and man-made shelters, resources, and wildlife.”- In-game description; It is first available in survival mode. The region is named after Mystery Lake, a lake fed by the release of water from Carter Hydro Dam.
- Connect the device to your system. The necessary kernel module is automatically loaded for supported devices.
- Configure your interface as appropriate. See also troubleshooting and known issues.
Troubleshooting
- For WPA support on Hermes I-based devices, firmware version 9.42 or later is required to be downloaded to the card.
- Ensure the Lucent/Agere station firmware (agere_sta_fw.bin) is available when requested, check the kernel ring buffer (dmesg(1)).
- Ensure the firmware-linux-nonfree package is installed.
- WPA capability can be verified by the presence of 'WPA-PSK supported' in the buffer:
- See also known issues.
- Spectrum24 Trilogy-based devices without flash memory: Examine the kernel ring buffer (dmesg(1)) to verify required firmware files are being loaded by the driver. If requested firmware is not available, no wireless interface will be created.
- Ensure the firmware files produced by the get_symbol_fw script (symbol_sp24t_prim_fw, symbol_sp24t_sec_fw) were moved to /lib/firmware.
Known Issues
WPA
- Supported with Hermes I-based (Lucent/Agere) devices only.
- Only WPA-PSK TKIP is supported.
- You may need to prevent wpa_supplicant from initially using CCMP, for example in /etc/network/interfaces:
Monitor Mode
For Hermes I-based devices, Lucent/Agere firmware versions 7.xx and 8.xx are buggy with respect to monitor mode operation; the Orinoco driver will refuse to change to monitor mode if requested. Firmware versions <= 6.16 are required for this feature, see Other Notes regarding firmware flashing.
Monitor mode operation can be forced on buggy firmware versions by supplying force_monitor=1 as an option to the orinoco module:
Other Notes
The station firmware on Hermes I-based devices can only be permanently upgraded/downgraded (flashed) through utilities available for the Microsoft Windows operating system. With respect to the AirPort card, its firmware can be indirectly flashed during installation of some Mac OS X operating system versions.
Installation of the hostap-utils package will blacklist the Orinoco driver modules. This package should be purged from your system if not required.
Supported Devices
airport
The AirPort card (not AirPort Extreme) is supported. This is an optional networking accessory for the following Apple systems:
- iBook G3 ('Clamshell', 'Dual USB / Snow')
- PowerBook G3 ('Firewire')
- Early-model PowerBook G4 ('Titanium')
- Other compatible systems (e.g. slot-loading iMacs with an AirPort card adapter)

I get that it can't load orinoco_cs but I don't know why? I have support compiled in and the external orinoco driver emerged so I'm not sure whats going on.
When I try a locate on orinoco_cs all I get is /usr/src/linux/linux-2.6.10/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_cs.c
Any help would be great,
