Hi Again all,

I found the drivers for my wireless thanks jtang613. If you need to find out if your wireless card is supported here is the Best link I have ever found http://linux_wless.passys.nl/

Can anyone help, when I do a "make install" i get the following error:

[root@pita linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre21]# make install
find . -name .depend -exec rm {} \;
set -e; for d in src doc man etc; do make -C $d install ; done

do a "cd" to the source directory, then do a "find . -name p80211.ko -print". This will search the current directory and all subdirectories for the file named "p80211.ko' and print the path to that file.....

Sounds like the p80211.ko module did NOT compile successfully. You may want to review any "README" or "INSTALL" files in the source code directory for instructions on how to compile specific device drivers for that package....
