The 2.4.17 kernel has the excellent hermes orinoco_cs drivers you can
use which work here very well. They are located in:
Network Device
---------------
Wireless LAN (non-hamradio)
YOu will want the hermes drivers and also you need to read Jean
Tourhilles excellent howto and get the wireless tools on the system.
Also note you need to select pcmcia/cardbus operations in the general
setup and then enable teh Hermes PCMCIA cards support (new). Jean
Tourhilles readme discusses the drivers, configuration, and other stuff
pretty well.
I don't have the url handy but you google it.
