I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 with broadcom 440x ethernet card and intel pro/wireless 2200BG card.

I have several threads mention the broadcom card is not supported by knoppix.

I have seen some other entry somewhere saying the intel card does not work in certain cases.

I have successfully booted knoppix (knoppix-std actually, running knoppix v3.2 I think) and can ping the 127.0.0.1 loopback.

When I run netcardconfig it says my cards are not supported.

I tried ndiswrapper and it says the wireless driver is not supported.

Am I just up the creek without a paddle on this particular laptop? I.e both my ethernet and wireless card are unsupported?

Thanks Lauren
