Linksys WPC54G

Well Have tried to look a solution myself to my networking problem... but I need help...

Currently I have Mandrake Linux 9.2 running perfectly but my network card a Linksys WPC54G is not supported, because Broadcom the maker of the chip, havent been very kind to release support to Linux, so im stuck with wrapper that loads the windows driver, its a trial and will finish next week, I was looking for a more permanent solution instead of having to pay for a key.

Also the help out other users with similar equipment... anyone has pointers or has the same problem.

Thanks for reading..

Go to the project page and look in the "CVS" section. There should be instructions. It's similar to logging into a FTP site.

sorry, I haven't a clue. the only flex I know of is FLEX-db, which is a digital asset manager. I've never used it, so don't know much about it.
