Netgear WG511T on Damn Small Linux



I got this cheap wireless card for my old laptop thatI installed Linux on . It was the only card I could find that had any Linux support at all. It is supposed to work under the madwifi driver which I loaded on the DSL distro on my old laptop.

Well its not working and I get some error messages in the boot up screen.

insmod: Module ath_hal loaded with warnings
module wlan loaded with warnings
insmod/lib/modules/2.4.26/net/ath_pci.0 init module no such devvice

insmod Hint:insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
You many find mroe information in syslog or output from dmseg

I am not sure how to fix it though

Can anyone help?

I am a bit of a newbie in Linux it would be nice to get this working since the other choice is to use the windows 98 partition where it works fine.

But I hate to expose myself to all that bad stuff.

Thanks

Jeanette
