Hi Gene, I don't know if you have gotten the answer you need here yet. But, it looks like you need the firmware for the card. I don't have any experience with that myself, but here is a link to some info that someone used to get it working on an R3000z: http://lists.pcxperience.com/pipermail/linuxr3000/2006-June/007709.html I haven't looked at the stuff any as I no longer have a functional R3000, but it should at least give you a start.
