For some strange reason i can't get my wireless card working although it works neatly with the live cd configuration

Could someone please post a "wireless for dummys guide" ?

Thanks

Some more info on what problem ou have would be nice. Like the nic you are using....
There is much weiredness with 802.11b cards today because there are many kinds of drivers, some work with 2 or 3 types of cards, others only with one.....

I gave up

Tired of rebuilding kernels and stuff...
It was just to stupid...
I just couldn't get that god dammed interface to apear...

The nic is a crapy dirty cheap Micronet wireless (www.micronet.com.tw) SP905 ...

I'll just wait for the new kernels...
Thanks anyway
