Hi Guys, I have read with interest the thoughts of several of you about the WMP-11, which is a PCI Wireless card. What follows are extracts from the /var/log/messages. Any hints as to what I am not configuring would be greatly appreciated, as the wireless services portion of Linux is a mystery to me. This is a Mandrake 8.2 system, with full kernel sources, wlan-ng rpms (all three portions- the kernel, the module, and the _pci card rpms) installed. I am pretty much at my witt's end here. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated! Sincerely, Shane /var/log/messages snippit: Oct 20 09:06:32 localhost kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Oct 20 09:06:33 localhost kernel: init_module: prism2_pci.o: 0.1.13 Loaded Oct 20 09:06:33 localhost kernel: init_module: dev_info is: prism2_pci Oct 20 09:06:33 localhost kernel: init_module: prism2_pci: No devices found, driver not installed.
