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.

Installing Linksys WMP54G with NDISWRAPPER-11

Welcome to LQ!

You haven't provided enough information to get proper help.

You'll need to read the sticky in this thread before trying
to post so you can give us information to help you; otherwise
we're playing "20 Questions" to try to find out what you got.

I gaurantee I am doing something wrong. I went into terminal and typed the first command on that link (tar -zxvf ndiswrapper_0.11.tar.gz) and it came back and said that it did not exist.

Sorry, I am not sure what information you want. Like I said I am new at this and attempting to teach myself with the help of a few books and a computer science background. My OS is RedHat Fedora4 and I am using it as a dual OS along side of XP which I originally installed on my computer. My wireless card is a Linksys WMP54G and is all ready installed on my XP version so I know the card works. I can't seem to find a driver for Fedora to use the wireless card. Let me know if you need any more info because I am not sure what else you would need.

I gave you the link...you should read it.

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...
