scarecrow Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Should work (with ndiswrapper), unless you are using an 64-bit OS... if you are, no dice currently. Moreover, Intel has promised native Linux drivers ( both 32 and 64 bit ) soon ( they claimed "Mid-Q2 2007", whatever that means in Intel terms!).

coverup Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 unfortunatly ndiswrapper doesn't work :( This advise comes too late, but nonetheless... Try a LiveCD such as Ubuntu first to see if there is a sufficient Linux support for your WiFi card. Ubuntu in particular is very good in this regard.

iphitus Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 this is the new intel card, there aren't native drivers *yet* but there will be. for now, its a matter of using ndiswrapper, there's an articule on the ubuntu wiki, so it does work on other distros.
