Wireless PCI card recommendations? (Clint Olson)
From: Clint Olson <colson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: Wireless PCI card recommendations?
Hello!
I'm looking for a PCI 802.11b wireless card that's Linux compatible.
Are there compatibility lists that I could look up somewhere, or does
anyone have any recommendations?

Clint Olson

A few days ago I posted "Wireless PCMCIA" in which I described my
frustrations about installing a wireless PCMCIA card into a Linux laptop.
My coments where mistaken by some as being anti-linux. They weren't intended
that way at all, merely a colourful viewpoint!

However to my delight, the post invoked a tremendous response from which I
gained amazing information (indirectly). In other words I rattled some
cages!
The ultimate result is that I was lead into a whole new World and a
valueable learning experience - now I know and understand a whole lot more
about the Linux OS, no to mention that I eventually got the blasted PCMCIA
card to work!

Try these for starters, and good luck.
