Ok... Well, I have a Linksys WMP54G v4 PCI WiFi card. I have no experience with networking on Linux, and I have no idea how to work ndiswrapper. My system specs are: AMD Athlon XP 2800+, 512 MB RAM, 120 GB HDD, and the previously mentioned WiFi card. I have a driver CD, but I'm not sure what to do with it. I just need some steps to follow... Thanks!

I use DSL, SLAX, and Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. Sometimes XP, and hopefully NEVER Vista.

go into bash

ndiswrapper -i yourdriver.inf
depmod -a
modprobe ndiswrapper


you should use the windows xp drivers.
they can be found on the CD that came with the card.

Mount cd, and all that jazz that you should figure out

Ok thanks! One more thing, I'm using DSL 2.0.... Is there a way get my card working on 2.0?
Thanks again!
