Guest David Gypsy Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 I have a DWL G650 PCMCIA wireless card and want to run it under Mandrake 10.0 - however, I have not been able to find the drivers for it anywhere, many sites claim it can be done and that the drivers are available, but still no actual drivers found. Can anyone help? Moved from Hardware by Darkelve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chris109 Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I have the Same Card, I just used the Mandrake Network Configuration to install the card. The driver was loaded, but I didn't get a network connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest David Gypsy Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I just installed Suse 9.1 Professional, and it picked the card up and installed straight away. Guess which distro I'm going to use on my laptop now!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durvish Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 In mandrake you need to use ndiswrapper for this card. I also tried it in suse because it ran straightaway but the reception is lousy no where near the full speed. with mandrake and ndiswrapper i get the full turbo speed with near perfect reception.
