Hello: I am back again after many months absence. I still have a copy of SuSE version 9.1 on my laptop. It is pretty useless right now, but let me explain. I have never been able to find a driver for the D-Link DWL-650+ PCMCIA wireless network adapter card in my laptop. (Actually that is not entirely true. I did purchase a wireless network adapter driver that uses a Windows wrapper to install it. But I was never able to get to work. Or maybe it was the other way around - a Windows driver in a Linux wrapper.) As I see it, there are two major hurdles that stand in the way of my using Linux on the laptop. One is the lack of a wireless network adapter card driver, and the other is a good voice recognition program for Linux. If any of you have knowledge of breakthroughs in either of these areas, I would greatly appreciate hearing the details. Regards, Glenn
