Please post your errors, maybe someone could help you out a bit, and while you're at it, issue this command to identify your chipset. Code: /sbin/lspci __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help. Please keep it on the forums only.

Tech Articles, Step-by-Step Guides, Reviews, Drivers, Hacks, Tips & Tricks But there is a link that claims to have this chipset working with Linux. Configuring Hangzhou Silan on Ubuntu Linux « thoughts Good Luck and please do let us know how it goes. __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help.
