Laptops :: Linksys WPC11/ Toshiba Protege 650ct Issue
I tried using a Zydan usb adapter as well, and I get the same system freeze when I try to connect. Any suggestions?
How long did you wait?
Sometimes, with my WPC54G, I have to wait a minute or two for it to connect.... works great once it does, and I am using NDISWrapper with the Linksys Windows driver.
Only other thing I can think of is to make sure you are using the latest driver.
Sorry, didn't see the last post.
Not sure what else to try.
I've same problem with a NetVision cardbus, the thing lights up when ndisweapper but the laptop locks up bit counter productive

I have a frugal install with perm home and opt directories so my boot parms will be different then yours but mine are:
root=/dev/hda5
vga=normal
quiet
pci=noacpi
apm
frugal
dma
toram
mydsl=hda6
restore=hda5
home=hda5
opt=hda5
I'm running 2.3 of DSL on this machine.
I'd suggest you try running from the liveCD and see if you can get it working from that first.
