Netgear WN111 v2 doesn't work, but kernel should support it
Hello,
I'm trying to get my Netgear WN111 V2 to work with knoppix. The same card will work on the same box when booted with lucid puppy or WattOS R3.
These 2 distributions seem to have the driver built-in. It doesn't appear to be using ndiswrapper. How would I test if I'm using ndiswrapper? Puppy and wattOS just "plug-and-played" it.
According to: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_h...php?hostif=USB :
Driver included in mainline kernel as of 2.6.30-rc1. Firmware is required, see http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ar9170
I'm using knoppix 6.4 which appears to be using the 2.6.37 kernel. Any idea why it's working with some linux distributions, and not others?
Thanks,
Charlie
