Help with Mandrake 10

Khoner · 11-09-2004, 07:10 PM

Hi everybody, new here...

Last month I installed Mdk 10 but there must be a problem with the network card because it doesn't work. I'm very newbie with linux, by the way...
I use a wireless card, exactly an ASUS PCI WL-138G.
Anybody knows what can be the problem? Do I need an extra module or something like that? In that case, where can I get it and how can I install it?
I need your help, please!
Thanks.

Well
welcome to the Forum.
first just change the Wireless lan to an oldi lan card which is ofcorse an normal wired lan card. then check it.. i think mandrake 10 dosent hav that wireless support.
or
in shell type setup to start configuring the lancard if it detects. if need extra help on commands just type --help it will give you all the list

Thanks for the answer L1nuxbug.
I've just tried to use the card as a normal wired card but it still doesn't work.
When you say mdk 10 hasn't got this wireless support, do you mean for my card?
If that's right, do you know any distro which does support it?
