| Cleaning up this HOW-TO. I have since
moved on and offer this document for adoption or at least consider
it obsolete at this time. Also my (ex) girl friend never did write
the documentation to how she got the card working with Suse.
Sorry. |

| Most likely last update for this
manual. The new 2.5 (to be 2.6) kernel appears to work fine with
respect to wireless cards and hence you can build wireless support
directly into the kernel and not have to go 'outside' it like
this. |

| I have decided to generalize this
document to other distributions then just Debian. The redhat
section is due to the generous contribution of Tony Perrie of
Involution (.DOT.) com. I also recently got a fast connection again

the new wlan-ng module |

| In part 2 of the HOWTO, the last item
says make-kpkg --revision-custom.1.0 kernel_image when later on you
used the correct one make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image .
Where there is an equal sign before the word custom and not a dash.
This has been corrected. thanks to Raj Prakash,

using. Also made a table to two |
