Hello.
I'm trying to get a LinkSys Wireless G WPC54GS card to work, using the bcm43xx
driver in the newer 2.6 kernels. I've got a certain distance, but I'm not there
yet. This card has the Broadcom 4318 chipset which is supported by the version
of
the driver in the most recent kernel.

Well, after a lot of work, and after getting help on the bcm43xx mailing
list, I find that the true situation seems to be that this card is `sort
of' supported in 2.6.
I hope that this is a reasonable place to ask this question. I have a
Lenovo T60 running Debian. I recently upgraded to Lenny and because
that upgrade killed direct rendering under Xorg (I'm using the ATI
drivers as packaged for Debian), I also upgraded to kernel 2.6.24

I made the mistake of buying one of the `linux-ready' Lenovo Thinkpad
T60's a while ago, or rather made the mistake of buying one with an
ATI Mobility FireGL V5200 graphics controller and ever since I've
been in ATI hell.
The radeon driver crashes the X server at startup:
Backtrace:
0: /usr/
Recently, I have posted to both of these lists:

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. `Discover' is not on the system,
however. Back to the drawing-board

Oh I could install it OK, but Ross' suggestion was that the presence of

I believe that the file /etc/pcmcia/network.opts has a final stanza
which is supposed to use the Debian network interfaces file
/etc/network
This was really clarifying; thank you.
