You don't specify how you will be using the wireless adapter -- PCI in a desktop, pcmcia, (?). At any rate, this first link is pcmcia-only, and was updated last just after linux-2.6.8 was released (the kernel used in Sarge):
http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/SUPPORTED.CARDS This page has a *great* overview of how to setup wireless networking in a linux environment, and also has good links to compatible hardware: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/linux-hn/wmp11-linux.htm#_Toc98941662 Also, this page has listings of both pcmcia and pci wireless card, and even links to Amazon to buy the hardware: http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz Good luck chance On Sun, 2006-03-12 at 07:42 -0800, Leonard Chatagnier wrote: > Reposting for no response.
