Okay .. I looked at various Howto's & they all claim that things will work - Haha .
Okay running SuSE 9.3 Retail Version - 2.6.11 kernel & am trying to get my wireless Belkin 2570 ralink based USB dongle to work.
I have set up a USB wireless thing in Yast Network card config & installed the 2570 driver (OSS version not Windows driver) with static addresses
The wireless config doesnt show up in Kinternet - it doesnt show any devices .
When I plug the USB dongle in the system gets a load of 10 (normal would be less than 1) & ip .. hald & hotplug running .
ip consumes 100% CPU
