Can't install mini pci-e card into desktop PC through a mini pci-e to pci-e 1x card
Hello guys,
I got a mini pci-e wireless card (intel 3945 wireless), and want to install it into my desktop PC (dell OptiPlex 390 i5-2400 / Debian testing) through a mini pci-e to pci-e 1x card.
But Linux can not drive it. Command "lspci" can not list the wireless card either, nor the mini pci-e to pci-e 1x card. But this wireless card can be drived on a Linux laptop.
I installed the cards into another desktop PC with WINXP installed, and the wireless cards works fine.
I don't know which is the problem, the dell OptiPlex 390 matherboard or the lack of Linux drivers.
Please can you give some clue to make it work on my Linux PC?
Thank you.
