Best way to get a handle on what you need for things like this is to |
| 19 |
reboot into the live cd and plug in the adapter. Then examine dmesg, |
| 20 |
lsmod and othr relevant sources of info to see what the live cd did. |
| 21 |
Make notes, replicate that on your gentoo system. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Almost any other method really just comes down to firing in the dark and |
| 24 |
hoping you might hit something. |
