hi ya
i've been playing with various new toys/widgets for next year
i've just gotten the distro to recognize the Netgear WG311 pci
802.11g card ( have a linksys card too but havent tested it yet )
- note that its "g" 54Mbps ... vs the slower 802.11[a/b]
- i got it working with the athros drivers from madwifi
http://www.sourceforge.net/madwifi
- now the trick is to setup another box just like it
and the two machines should be able to talk to each other
over 802.11g ...
- differences in various wireless stuff

- not that WEP is NOT secure ... ( its been cracked )
and the other fun stuff... i just bought my first dvd .. w/out having
a player or system setup ...
- played w/ ogle, xine, mplayer, few others..
- after a few hours of fiddling ( installing various packages )
- "dvd player" is now working .. so now i need a new set of
real speakers and real audio amps
- dvd stuff that ws installed
