Linksys WMP54G Driver
I am new to Linux and I am running it as a dual boot with windows XP. I can't get the wireless card to work because I can't figure out how to get the driver for it. It is a Linksys WMP54G Card, any help would be nice.

I have the same wireless card and the following is a tutorial that I followed closely to get it working. To be honest I'm not sure if there is a native driver for this in linux (That would be the best way to install it) but I went with NDISWRAPPER by default. It was a quick and easy install and I didn't have any problems. Hope this helps.

I am not on that computer because the internet doesn't work on it yet. I am on a laptop next to that computer, I don't wish to type all of the lines out that came up as a result of /sbin/lspci. Which one in particular am I looking for? I'll type a couple that might help...
