Hi everyone,

Any chance I can get the card[1] in $subj to work under CentOS 5.1 ?
The only thing I get in dmesg when inserting/removing the card, are messages
from pccard:

--- dmesg ---
pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
pccard: card ejected from slot 0
--- end ---

When inserting, no new network interface becomes available, so I assume it
doesn't recognize it. Any way I can get it to work? Tips, pointers to
relevant docs are all very appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance,
and have a great day everyone.

Cheers,
Alex

This link says it is not supported in Linux. However you may still get it
working by manually specifying the driver for it. If you look at lastweeks
posts you will find a whole discussion on wireless for linux and where to
get generic drivers from sourceforge.net.

GoodLuck,

John
