Re: Need help installing orinoco 'swapbox' card: msg#00005

Subject: Re: Need help installing orinoco 'swapbox' card
Hi there,

I have a D-link 650+ airplus card bus installed in IBM think pad
laptop. I am running Redhat 9 and trying to get it to work but I don't
know if there is any driver available for that device.

Can anyone let help me out here with the correct driver and instructions.

I would appreciate your help on this.

Thanks.

Faruk Ahmed
