[Sheflug] Wirless LAN card



Hi,
    I've been asked to install a wireless card on to a linux computer
(RH 8.0), the card is mounted on a PCI to PCMCIA bridge, and it seems
to be dtected (through lspci). The card model is 3CRWE777A-E1, and I
believe that it uses the orinoco_cs module. However, this module
cannot be loaded (and neither can any of the other modules in
/lib/modules/2.4.18/pcmcia/, for that matter).

    I have looked around for an easy to undertand tutorial, but found
none that deals with the first stage of the intallation (nćmely,
getting eth1 to show up!).

    Can anyone shed any light? I am not too sure about what details
might be relevant, but ask, and I'll try to be as "verbose" as
possible :-)
