2.6.8 and any wireless card


Ok,

I have Slackware 10, 2.6.8 and three different wireless cards that refuse to work.

Linksys WPC11 version 4 some realtek chip (version 4 i hear is a bitch)
Motorola WN825G broadcom chip
NL-2511CD intersil chip

Has anyone gotten any of these working in Slackware 10? I have read people getting them to work with ndiswrapper under RH. If I have to switch to a lower kernel then thats fine. I have searched google and the fourms and it seems as if everyone's getting these working in other distro's however not in slack. I am able to get all of these turned on in 2.4.26, however they refuse to get an ip from dhcp or even do a iwlist wlan0 scan. Anyone got any of these working in slack10?
