Re: [SLE] Linux compatible 802.11g PCI Card ?

Hello.

I currently have a couple of DLink DWL-G650 cards. Looking on the
DLink site, they appear to use the Intersil Prism GT chipset.

http://www.intersil.com/design/prism/prismGT/

These guys seem to be publishing specs for the Linux community to use
via this project:

http://www.linux-wlan.com/

So, even though I haven't yet been able to try these cards under Linux,
I am hopeful that we will soon have drivers for them. I wonder if the
Linksys uses the same chipset.

It would be nice if more manufacturers would build the drivers
themselves, wouldn't it ? Especially for new products.

Bye for now,
Stuart.

Anyone know of a Linux compatible 802.11g PCI Card? I saw
LinkSys
selling one but when I emailed their tech support to see what the
chipset was, they said they didn't know.
