2Wire Wireless PC Card
 

My Mandrake 9.1 recognizes it, and uses the orinoco driver. However, I'm not sure how to configure it to work on the network.Where do I tell it which channel to use and such? Also, on shut-down, it hangs the system while attempting to get info on the ethernet connection that it doesn't have. Any suggestions?

i think i found a driver????
 

Hey I am a baby to linux but after searching for days on the internet and not finding any real answers, i desided to call up the people who made the pc card. Well the maker of the card( 2WIRE part # 1000-100016-002) is Agere Systems, well the sold the stuff to Proxim. Icalled them and they gave me this link
2WIRE Redhat 7.2 Driver i , being a newbie, well more like a zygote, anyway i don't no how to compile or install a .tgz :confused: so i thought i would post this info so that all you who wack away code can give a brother a hand. :p

Hello zygote... :-)

tar zxvf your_tgz.tgz
cd dir_extracted
./configure (if it's there)
make
make install

or

./configure && make && make install

good luck!
