I'm glad you asked the question, since I hadn't checked on support for my U.S. Robotics 802.11g card in the last six months or so, and had given up hope. I'll be downloading the 30-day trial Mandrake 9.2 RPM on the site, and trying it out. Wish me luck.

Haven't found any way to tweak WEP (either on or off so far, but no way to enter my passphrase), and haven't taken a real close look at the separate WPA support driver yet).

Real abstract -- no brush, no canvas, I just think about it. I just went to an art museum where all of the art was done by children. All the paintings were hung on refrigerators. -- Steven Wright Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

There is a free (GPL'd) version of this that works with some cards at http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ -- /g Outside of a dog, a man's best friend is a book, inside a dog it's too dark to read -Groucho Marx Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I'll check out the link you mentioned. -- 19:53:20 up 5 days, 3:09, running Mandrake Linux 9.2, kernel 2.4.22-26mdk on an Intel P4 1.8 Registered Linux user #324360 Awright, which one of you hid my PENIS ENVY?
