SMC2635w, ADM8211

[dougvega]

Knoppix did not detect my smc 263w card the power light didn't even came on, so I tried it on a windoze laptop and it did work so I know it is not a bad card . I searched the internet for the linux drivers and I found a Tar file ADM8211 (the chip used in the smc card }which I uncompressed but that is as far as My limited knoledge goes I been getting to used to this apt-get thingy that I never thought I had to actually use any real unix knowledge has anybody actually used this drivers and compiled them on a knoppix/debian or linux box for that matter???

What do you get, when untaring it? (ls)

IU get a new file with subdirectories, I executed the file called makefile as specified in the read me file but the shells just hangs after a few seconds and then nothing happens and then I have to kill the shell .

And there is no 'configure'-script?
