I have confirmed this happens when running off the Knoppix 3.2cd not just after a hd install. Should i try a different driver from somewhere?
Running iwconfig eth1 says
Warning driver for eth1 has been compiled with version 14 of Wireless Extensions while this program is using version 15.
Some things may be broken.
eth1 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"shopwireless" Nickname:"Prism I"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Access Point: 00:30:AB:1F:14:9F

The laptop is a Toshiba S103 I had Mandrake 9.0 working with a custom kernel and newest pcmcia-cs. After doing a Knoppix 3.2 knx-hdinstall my Netgear MA401 wireless card only works if its inserted before booting. If removed after booting or inserted after booting the machine hangs solid no ctl+alt+bkspc no ctl+alt+del. I have to hold powerbutton in till it dies then reboot. Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks
