Hi, ive just installed mandrake 10.1 on my laptop. everything appears to work fine except it hasn't picked up the PCMCIA wireless card, its a 3COM 3CRPAG175 and works perfect under windoze. Bear in mind ive only used linux about twice and haven't got a clue about anything with it really, so if you have an answer please put it simply. thanks for any help offered! Matt One day ill understand mandrake...
