Hello I am trying to make a break from Windows to Linux. I installed Mandrake Linux10.1 It went in pretty easily. The Netgear Ma 521 does not connect. I have tried to download the proper drivers but I can only connect with windows. The driver does not show up in linux unless I put it on flash memory. I copy pasted the driver on to linux but when I click on the Setup.exe Icon it opens a popup and asks me what do I want to open it with. I don;t know. I'm used to clicking an Icon and it just runs. I hope someone can help. Thank You in advance. Joe

You probably need to use Ndiswrapper.

Start here:

There is also a page on the wiki specific to mandrake

Also, check out the LQ wiki for wireless

Good luck
