ok, so I got this new Dell XPS laptop, and I installed SUSE 10.0 on it,
dual-boot. Now I'm trying to get the wireless card to work. It is an
Intel Pro 2915ABG. I've got the netgear router setup and working
wirelessly to WIndows, but not for SUSE. I'm trying to install and get
ndiswrapper working, but I'm... floundering badly. I was using this
how-to:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Suse_Professional_9.x
and I got to a page that says if iwconfig says "no wireless extensions"
for my card I need to enable the config option CONFIG_NET_RADIO in my
kernel setup-recompile and reinstall the kernel. I'm not up on
compiling kernels, though I did download & install the
kernel-source.rpm package.
Can someone point me to what to do next??? either a how-to to add that
option to a kernel, or a better how-to for ndiswrapper???
