Re: [PLUG] Kubuntu and a Belkin 54g wireless card with an Atheros chipset

Yeah, I found that out. I'm trying to avoid having to download a separate
driver and compile, and then (possibly) re-compile a kernel, etc. Especially
when new versions of the driver come out. I'm hoping to find an apt source
that will make my life easier, so I don't have to fight too much to get this
to work.

Tell you when I get home. :-)

That's where I searched first, to find all the things that have not yet
worked ... figured I'd ask here first, before joining yet another high
volume mailing list that I'll end up not having the time to read, until I
have a problem. :-)
