After reading that in a few posts here that this adapter works very well with Knoppix, I tried out one of these devices that a friend of mine owns. I tried it on a hdinstall version of knoppix and with knoppix from the cd. In each situation the whole system froze up. I didn't have much time to do any trouble shooting. Perhaps it was due to hardware issues with my laptop. I was loooking forward to giving this device a try. Maybe another time.

I'm not proud, but a little happier: I've been trying over a year to network Linux with the Linksys wpc11 without success, my persistence due to thinking that the card was as supported as any other.

Spending UKP 30 on a Netgear MA401 was worth it - it just works.
