Hey guys, I have a laptop of mine where I decided to install *nix for the first time. This is a Tecra 8000 with a Linksys 54g PCMCIA card for wireless. I was told this model isn't terribly *nix friendly, but I don't have the money to go out and buy a new wireless card. The problem is I installed mepis locally on the HDD. Whenever I boot it says that the card was unabled to be initialized, and wlan0 cannot start. I've tried various setting in the OS configure and messed around with ndiswrapper just to see if I might be able to get it to start post boot. It's been kinda fruitless as of late, maybe you wise *nix guys would be able to help me? (Or maybe point out a distro or mod that would be beneficial? =) ) Thanks in advance for replies.
