It did. The card installs properly now. More head banging came my way
though - I realized that I had to download the iwconfig etc. utilities and
compile them. That worked but - now the card always bonds to the eth0
interface. I defined a separate interface (eth2) for this card. The
Wireless Lan Howto doesn't seem to talk about this part of the
configuration. Maybe that is too basic - but I don't know of the right
resource to set this up properly.
Any suggestions as to where this setup is described?
Thanks,
Ferdinand
