1 Hi,
2
3 I've got a D-Link DWL-650 PCMCIA wireless card and I'm trying to
4 make it work with gentoo and my Dell laptop. I'm competely clueless
5 here as I've never made wireless work on linux before. I've tried
6 using ndiswrapper and cardmgr to load the drivers, but ndiswrapper
7 won't see the hardware at all and cardmgr gives me these error
8 messages when I put the card in:

12 to reset (reg=0x0000)!

17 '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0.0' properly (unknown bus) or the
18 sysfs-support of your device's driver needs to be fixed, please report

22
23 I take it I'm not using the right driver. What driver should I be
24 using? Is there an easy way to make these cards work?
25
26 Thanks. :-)
