My laptop has a wireless card.  Wow.  Don't die of the shock.

I never use it.  No, really, I don't.  I'm never in a location with 
wireless access, so I just content myself with a good old fashioned 
Cat5e cable and call it a day.

Now my life has changed.  There is a wireless access point in my AP 
Computer Science class (or so they tell me).  It might be time to 
configure my wireless card (right now it's not configured, so I don't 
know if it's even in /dev, /proc, or /anything).

I know this is sort of dumb, but where would I start?  I've never added 
a whole new device to the system before, though I'd like to learn.

The card is:  Intel PRO/Wireless (the kind they put in the IBM X40 type 
2386-1CU - I don't know anything other than that part of the card's 
name - I'm sorry.)

It worked under Kubuntu, so I know there is a linux driver.

Thanks for any help.
