You suggest a distro that offers support to this wireless card with no
troubles? I mean a DVD distro that doesn't require any mod... I'd like
simply to put the distro disk into the DVD reader and follow the video
instructions...
Could OpenSUSE 10.3 RC1 be the right choice?

Thank You!

The ipw3945 driver support is on the add-on cd.(1 dvd install,1 add-on cd
install)With that cd OpenSuse 10.2 worked from the beginning on my
Gateway with ipw3945 built in.
Also worked out of the box with Fedora 7,PCLinux 2007,Mandriva
2007,Mint2.2,SimplyMepis 6.5,Ubuntu 7.04,Sabayon 3.4,and Gentoo 2007.
