EbRiZZlez Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I've recently bought this new wireless card which is compatiable with Linux, it's driver was done by MadWifi. My only trouble is, I just want to get on the net with my SuSe Linux 10.0 (old distro, I know, but I can't update it without the net working.) I tried manipulating the YAST manager and nothing... I tried compiling the driver available at MadWifi's website, and got a funky error about the Makefile and after a while I just gave up. I've been working on Windows operating system for so long, because of it's popularity so when I program something, it wouldn't be problematic with the OS cababilites thus I had a larger audience.. But I now want to set aside my programming ehtics for my other projects, so I need to use SuSe. I have not a single clue about Linux and how to configure a simple thing. Can someone please help me out here? I just need help in configuring my Linux so I can go online via wirelessly. Would I focus on the driver from madwifi or should I continue messing around with the YAST controls? And how would you compile the driver source? My wireless card is a: NetGear WG311v3.
