Thanks Jeremy. I contacted Linksys support and they claim they dont
support linux at all, and wont for this card - period. Which is obviously
wrong, the Ver3 card is supported, but I guess it means my Ver4 cardis
useless.
When I bought mine there was a piece of paper in the box that said it
doesn't work on NT and several otehr devices, so I could get a new one.
Check your box.
That said, go to
www.linuxquestions.org and search for it, there are
many threads there (I'm known as ucntcme there, you can search for that
too)
Anyone know of any wireless cards that are 100% supported, and will
continue to be supported ?
Lucent Orinoco Gold, can't seem to go wrong with them. So far they stick
with a single chipset (exercise for the user: Why?. :^) )
Cheers,
Bill
