Linux + Dell TrueMobile Wireless

Question

I have found a solution to get the Dell TrueMobile 1300 and 1400 wireless network cards to work flawlessly in Linux.  I will be posting a link to my site with instructions in the next day or two, but if you want info before then, email me at  and I can send you the instructions.  The solution will also work for various other 802.11g cards that are not yet supported in Linux.   keywords:Truemobile, Linux, wireless, broadcom, latitude

Here's a rough draft that should be more than sufficient for most people. I'll be adding much more to it over the next few days. Whether you succeed or fail, please send me any tips on improving the instructions for others. Thanks.

Hello,

I installed RedHat Enterprise Linux 3.0 on my dell d800 and trying to get the wireless (True mobile 1300) to work.

I installed the ndiswrapper. It looks that part of the process seems to work.

What XP driver am I supposed to use with the ndiswrapper (and where can I download it). and also what do I have to do to make it work ?

any help would be appreciated.

thanks,

Ron
