I recently came into possession of a Dell inspirion
2500.The laptop is
great except for one problem, it has no network
support. But it does have
two pc card slots. so I was wondering if Linux
supported linksys802.11b
wireless cards, and how I would go about setting one
up (or where I
could find out).

	I bought a Dell C600 laptop and got a Lucent/Ornico
WiFi 802.11b
Gold PCI card for it. It works fine with Linux and
this laptop. I
installed RH 8 and had no problems at all getting it
to work. I paid $50
for a new one (on eBay). You should be able to find
more data on it and
how to install and use it with Linux by googling for
it. Recommended.
