re: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 while getting IP address for eth0 interface using DHCP

Hi,

I'm still having trouble configuring my wired network interface on
Debian Lenny running on HP Compaq Presario CQ61.

I put "auto eth0; iface eth0 inet dhcp" (each statment on separate line
as shown in debian wiki) into my /etc/network/interfaces file.
I ran "ifdown eth0; ifup eth0". I got this error message in the output
"wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801".
I also tried configuring the network setting manually, but to no avail.
(see output of ifconfig -a and lspci -k below for details).

Is it something I'm doing wrong? Why wouldn't DHCP work during the
installation process?

I have done quite a bit of googling about it. I have seen posts of other
people experiencing similar problems as me, but so far have found no
solution to the problem.

I'd appreciate any feedback on what needs to be done in my situation.

Thanking you all in advance.

Alexander Kapshuk.

IIRC this is a harmless warning.

yes, sorry, I think you're doing wrong.
The wmaster0 is a fake of the wifi-driver needed by the developers in
developing the driver, nothing you could or should configure.

Try out to find the intel developers-manual (iwlwifi)(don't care about
atheros). Might be on http://intellinuxwireless.org. There it should be
discussed.
For me it was'nt that easy to fix the problem. Because of this I'actually
don't really remember the way I went to finally find the solution.
 And tonight, I'm sorry, I don't have the time to help you. May be in the next
few days. Let me know, if you succeed and if, how, and even otherwise.
