Re: taking the plunge -- version 1.1

Hi Chris:

Yeah, I would love help setting it up and wondered if there was a way to set it 
up during the installation of Gentoo so it can get the latest drivers over the 
lan, but first things first:  Where do I download those drivers?  I believe my 
card is the same card you have.

WMP11 Version 4 is my Linksys Model Number.

it is most definately an 802.11B card only, (no G or A)

I am assuming (though I have never done it) that I will need to recompile the 
kernel to include the driver?

I have a little bit of a chicken and egg senario going on as I have a "LIVECD" 
of Gentoo 1.4 for P4 which is my machine and I suppose I can use the "canned" 
tar for installation and update later (you Gentoo folks feel free to answer 
this!)  for the Portage part of the install... but would prefer the latest 
builds.  so getting the wireless up is like the first priority.

Thanks for responding about my Elite Duo, I was wondering not about them 
working so much as is there an iTouch like program for Linux to run the 
programmable keys is my real question with it.

Thanks to all who have helped and I do have some clarification quesions about 
the Gentoo install which I will address in another post.

Thanks again,
