Hi all:  I have been away from the list for a long time.  I am still a
newbie. I really just want to stay at the desktop.  So sue me.  :-)

I freshly installed Mepis (as recommended months ago at a west-side
PLUG meeting -- thank you, Mr. Mepis Advocate) and although mepis.org
says it should work with most 802.11(b) cards, and mentions D-Link as
a good choice, my system does not seem to recognize the card at all.

I know virtually nothing at the command line.  I see linux drivers out
there on the D-Link site, but am reluctant to try to follow "generic"
instructions.  Mepis seems highly configured right out of the can, and
I don't want to screw it up.

The forums on mepis.org seem divided between those for whom Wi-fi just
popped right up on one hand, and on the other, hopeless forlorn losers
like me who posted 3 months ago and have "0 replies."  (If I get it
working, I will post back there and be a hero to those poor people).

Is anyone out there a Mepis expert (I know there are deep Debian
people out there).  Could you kindly step me through troubleshooting
this?  I am guessing that I either lack a driver, or have mine wrongly
configured.

Many thanks --

Craig
