Ok well so far I've downloaded and installed ndiswrapper for my adapter and installed the WinXP drivers I got from the site. using
#ndiswrapper -i net111v2.inf
Then I tried
#ndiswrapper -l
and got
[root@SuperSai ~]# ndiswrapper -l
net111v2 : invalid driver!
So I tried to uninstall it so I can try the Win2k driver.
[root@SuperSai ~]# ndiswrapper -r net111v2.inf
couldn't delete /etc/ndiswrapper/net111v2.inf: No such file or directory
My wireless still doesn't work, I can't install the 2k driver because it thinks its the XP one and says its already installed, and I'm totally lost. What should I do?
Edit: Whoa! Ok I got it to unistall and I installed the Win2k one and it worked! Only problem is, my little light still isn't flashing ...
[root@SuperSai ~]# ndiswrapper -i /root/Desktop/Computer/Driver/net111v2.inf
installing net111v2 ...
[root@SuperSai ~]# ndiswrapper -l
net111v2 : driver installed

Okay so I spent the whole day trying to get my wireless working. Couldn't.
So far I was able to install ndiswrapper, and the driver needed.
[root@SuperSai ~]# ndiswrapper -l
net111v2 : driver installed
device (0846:6A00) present
[root@SuperSai ~]# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSIDff/any
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Tx-Power:20 dBm Sensitivity=0/3
RTS thrff Fragment thrff
Encryption key:5303-4524-68 Security mode:restricted
Power Managementff
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
So I went to my RC config file and try to fiddle with it a little bit, commenting the eth0 interface and adding wlan0 interface.
MODULES=(ndiswrapper e100 eepro100 mii)
USELVM="no"
HOSTNAME="SuperSai"
lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
eth0="dhcp"
wlan0="dhcp"
WLAN_INTERAFCES=(wlan0)
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 wlan0)
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
So ...
[root@SuperSai ~]# /etc/rc.d/network restart
and fail. No lights are blinking on the adapter, but its hot. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. What do you think could be the problem? Help ASAP because I'm gonna loose my wired connection very soon and then I'll be in big trouble. X_X thanks

Your better off buying a nic card that is supported by linux drivers, ndiswrapper is a hit or miss thing and is flaky
