I just installed Suse Personal 8.2 and cannot get wireless to work with an
Orinoco Gold card that works fine under XP. Under linux I get a "no wireless
extensions" error. I came across a web site that recommends enabling
"config_net_radio" although I have no idea how to do this in the kernel. I
would have expected that this wireless worked by default.

Any help would be appreciated.
