DWL510G KNX3.7

[GaTk]

I have a DLINK DWLG510 WIRELESS PCI card that I am trying to make work with Knoppix 3.7. I have the DLINK install disk that has drivers for WIN98/ME NT2000 and WinXP I am using ndiswrapper (it is installed in 3.7) and the WinXp driver. The driver install with ndiswrapper appears to work.
As a Linux novice I would appreciate some help to get this going.
I have gone through many HOWTOs but always end up with

"wlan0 no such device"

Following is pertinent (incomplete ??) information.

I am suspicous of some of the data but don't know what to do about this.
In the lspci output the "Unknown device 3b09"<----- lower case but is 3B09 in the WinXP driver.inf file

In the /etc/network/interfaces dir there is no reference to wlan0..

I had the same problem.I used "ndiswrapper -i /path/to/your.inf"
instead of the gui config app and everything works fine now.


ndiswrapper -i /path/to/your.inf
modprobe ndiswrapper
wlcardconfig
netcardconfig

You ought to be online now.

The 4 lines of your reply should be attached to every howto in the
wireless world. Today is the FIRST I've seen the last 2......
Thanks a lot//
