[Sheflug] A Stupid Question

["Alistair Williamson" <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I am trying to make my D-Link DWL-650 wireless LAN network card work in my
SuSE 7.3 laptop. I believe the reason it won't work at the moment is because
there are no drivers for it in this distribution. There are drivers
available and I have downloaded 2 packages: One is
linux-wlan-ng-0.1.10-RPMS.tar and the other linux-wlan-ng-0.1.13-pre1.tar. I
have opened both packages - the RPMS one contains RPM packages for RedHat
7.1, RedHat 7.2 and Mandrake 8.1. Now here is the stupid question - will any
of these packages work with my SuSE 7.3? If so, which one? I have looked in
the other package - there are lots of files and the README talks of
recompiling the kernel with specific modules = way beyond the capabilities
of this tyro!


Cheers,

Alistair
