RE: [MLUG] Wireless NIC on SuSE 10

["Pepper, Mike" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I'm presuming you're not running it on x86_64 in which case you'd need
the linksys driver for Windows XP 64bit.

If ndiswrapper says it detected the card, see if it appears in yast.

Russell.

I am not running an x86_64 box.
It is a 1Gz PIII.

I went and downloaded the latest ndiswrapper.rpm from findrpms.net.
It just so happens that it is for SuSE 9.3, instead of 10, but I
wouldn't think that would be a cause for too much grief.
I installed the ndiswrapper via YAST without incident.

You can see from the errors below the path that I followed after that.
I downloaded the drivers from a site that said that these drivers would
work with my card <Linksys WMP54G> and ndiswrapper.

Any ideas?

Again, I don't have an internet connection on this box yet. I don't have
any cat v cable that will reach it.

Thanks in advance
