Some questions before I do it

that's the spirit, Jez nothing like getting your hands dirty to learn, learn, learn. Linux it seems is like medicine, you can never stop learning so you might as well get used to it early on. Besides the headaches, though, and sleepless nights I do believe I sent my old eyes over the edge with reading reading reading

Google here, google there. Do plenty of searches in forums, this and linuxquestions.org is another good one. Soon you will be a veteran noob like me

At the moment I think my main problem is going to be getting internet access in Linux. Thing is, I'm using one of ASUS' wifi adapters that has it's own special slot on the motherboard, rather than a PCI slot, and I have no idea how to set it up in Linux, if it's even possible. I've been searching frantically for info, but most of what I'm finding is other people asking the same question as me, and not getting anywhere. I have a feeling I'm not going to be able to get it working in Linux... Since I get my internet connection through the network, I can't get internet in Linux right now Time to buy a new wifi card perhaps :P.
