Re: Wlan adapter

[Ted Parks <th.parks@gmail.com>]

Thomas,

I personally have found ndiswrapper difficult to get running under
Sarge. I would be interested in hearing other people's experiences.

I now have ndiswrapper installed, can load the driver with modprobe,
but have yet to make my LinkSys card connect to the network.

Best,
Ted Parks
