    ndiswrapper is a pain ... sometimes it works .. sometimes it doesnt
            "works" == it can ping/ssh the outside wired world

    > Alternately, I have a dLink DWL-G510. Does anyone know of a driver?

    what is the chipset ?? ( run lspci )
            - all manufacturers tend to change chipset on the
            same model they are selling ( sometiems they put in little
            hints things like version 1, version 2, sometimes and usually not)

    for list of supported hw ... see what hw is at your local
    pc store or your buddy's working wireless linux pc or your fav online
    store

            http://www.Linux-Wireless.org/Drivers

            -- look at the hw list of that driver

    i use netgear wg311 (unmarked) for 802.11g .. w/ madwifi cards
            newer wg311 (v2 on the box only) uses the (worthless) ti chipset

    c ya
