I have a Linksys wireless USB network adapter, model WUSB11, and want to use it with Mandrake 10.0 or, alternatively, with Suse 9.1.
Has someone sucessfully tried using that card ?
If yes, what steps must we follow ?
Thanks in advance.

always refer to the HCL to check compatibility ...
some have had success, some have not, so try your luck

I think the card is recognized when inserted, because I can see this output in a Mandrake console :

However, I still cannot use it for Internet connection.
What the following steps ?

You didn't say what version of the wusb11 wireless network adapter you're using. The driver looks like its loading correctly from the syslog you showed. However, it may not be new enough if you are using a wusb11 v2.8 adapter, or if your kernel version is greater than 2.6.

The following web page gives good pointers on how to configure your adapter.

The Support section on this page shows how to configure the adapter and has some links for distribution specific issues including set-up instructions for SuSE and Mandrake.
