I set up a Linksys WPC11 (v3) in Debian a few weeks back. It uses those modules you mentioned, so you might give this a try. I used the instructions located at <http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38579>; that suggested you should add the file <http://ozlabs.org/people/dgibson/dldwd/testing/hermes.conf> to /etc/pcmcia/. (I notice that this file mentions a similar model number to the one you have... here's hoping.) Then reference this file to /etc/pcmcia/config; I forget the exact syntax (I'm not near my laptop at the moment), but it's fairly obvious from either the man page or other bits of that file how to do it. After I did that and restarted pcmcia-cs, I inserted my card, got two high beeps, and was then on the net. Let me know if this works or not. -- Bill Jonas * bill@billjonas.com * http://www.billjonas.com/ "It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your front door.
