Then, i got a message about the card needing a firmware to work, i clicked "continue" because i got that already, and behold, the card works. stupid me. sorry for the trouble. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
