6 If there's a driver in the kernel for your wireless hardware, select
7 it and use -Dwext. The madwifi driver will work with particular
8 wireless chipsets only (atheros). If there is no wireless driver in
9 Linux, then use ndiswrapper (you'll need to emerge it) and use the
10 MSWindows driver with it - it may work.
