It would be interesting to have a Debian-specific howto. The above
howto says:
Wireless cards have interface similar to any Ethernet cards, so you
have to add in /etc/conf.modules:
But there is no /etc/conf.modules file in Debian. And the following
is very unclear:
2. "options module io=0xAAA irq=I ...", where 0xAAA is the io base
address to assign the card, I is the IRQ and so on if there are
other parameters.
