Wireless PCI Cards - Which Work?

Actually I know my Netgear MA311 works but we just moved to a new house and the little antenna for the card was lost. I purchased a Netgear WG31l ($50) and Sarge with a 2.6.11 kernel didn't recognize it. The antenna fit the old MA311 card so I am out $50 but back on line. (I had expected the

2005-08-29 Thread Thomas H. George
I ran out of space in a 9 Gbyte /var directory, most of the space consumed by debug, kern.log and syslog files. With a little searching I found the logrotate command and realized these files were being rotated. In /var/log I found a large (approximately 1 Gbyte) syslog file plus an equally l

I was surprised! After running dmesg I found my printer working again. I don't understand why this is so but, as I had done nothing else (I send these messages from another computer), dmseg must have corrected the problem. Thanks again for the help. Tom George Thomas H. George,,,61
