2 HDD's 2 OS's?

[Airbozo]

It seems that the driver I need is in a .zip format, and the data sheet says it's compatible with Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 and XP. I'll look on the Ubuntu Forums to see if anyone else has this working on thier computer.

What model is it, I may be able to help.

I have 2 I could use. I have a WUSB854G ver. 4 and a WUSB11 2.8. Ubuntu recognized the WUSB11 in the Networking Tools or whatever it is, but I haven't tried the other one. The WUSB11 didn't work though.

[.Maleficus.]

I tried using my WUSB854G adapter, and when activating it, the computer freezes. Hmmm.

[Airbozo]

None of my sources show any luck with the WUSB54G, and even mention that the wireless usb adapters in general are tough to get working under linux without some knowledge of the kernel internals. (thanks doug at redhat!)

That said, you may have some luck perusing the linux boards of your particular distro. Even other distro sites may be of help if you are running the same kernel.

Ok, I'll check around and see what I can come up with.

I found a guide to get the WUSB11 set up, but when I finished doing it, Networking didn't detect it and it also changed my eth1 to eth2. Now, instead of having wlan0, eth0, eth1 and modem, I have eth0, eth2, and modem. What's up with that?

[Airbozo]

Usually when it adds another eth# the old one is still configured in the system (not necessarily detected) The number is not really important so long as it works (which it seems not to be).

Type: ifconfig -a and either send me the results or post it here, and I will see what I can deduce..

also type: netstat -a (think it is a) and send that too.

Hey guys. I have a little experience with Ubuntu and XP dual-boot using a broadcom WiFi chip. I battled for 2 weeks to get my WiFi running with Ubuntu. You need to check the Ubuntu Forums. There is very useful info on there. I hope this helps a little.
