Hi Kevin, Last night I got the dwl 120 e configured with minimal problems. I should have worked but it did not. This evening I did a little more research and discovered that the atmel module does not work in the 2.6 kernel. I switched to the 2.4 and it came right up. I found a patch for 2.6 which I will apply as soon as I figure out how to apply a patch ;-) This at least gets me out of my office and into my Lazy-Boy to do email and news groups even if I have to drag a USB adapter with me. I am a happy camper. On to printing, samba, but for now I have my first totally usable Mandrake machine since I started playing wth 7.2 Hurrah!!! I will go back to the DWL g650 card once I have stopped gloating and have actully gotten a full weeks worth of real work done under Mandrake. Thanks for the help,
Pat
