Hi David & Christian,I didn't get the driver to work :-(. I have a SIS Mainboard and an AMD64 Processor. I'm worried that I do not have time at the moment to look up why it doesn't work...Well, I haven't got THAT notebook, but what I do have is one of Ralinks WLAN mini-PCIs (MSI MP54G2). They have a driver for it on http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm. The driver is really odd and IMHO would need to be GPL to be fixed. I haven't even seen the license, but anyway... I have to hack the driver AND/OR the kernel itself to be actually be able to use the damn thing.I have a Cardbus version using a realtech driver (RT2500), and it works much of the time, but some operations (iwlist scan for one) generate a segmentation failure somewhere nasty, and you need to reboot after that. Perhaps we need to collect any patches somewhere accessible, althoughit would be far preferable to get it GPL and incorporated into the kernel.Greetings and thanks for that hint. Tobias
I found a patch published by a SuSE developer. This may be enough to get the driver working. Anyway, this is the URL: http://www.bb-zone.com/misc/rt2500/
I haven't got the time to test it myself yet. Anyway, I'm running Sarge i386 and 1.4.2.0 works, sort of. I'm running without kernelhack right now and the card hangs the kernel when I try to scp things from my server.
