wifi card. I hope someone can help :)
It really depends on WHICH DWL-650 you have. There are at least three
versions. The original is based on the Intersil chipset and should work
with the wavelan_cs driver. The other versions are based on the TI
chipset and there are issues with any driver. There are some
open-source drivers that I've heard will work. The one that really
works well is ndiswrapper (ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net). It's a
wrapper that allows the Windows drivers to work under Linux.
