Isn't there a guru out there... someone out there... that can PLEASE write a FC4 driver and config to support my poor little Linksys 54G card that has been sitting on a shelf ever since I switched my laptop to Linux? And yes, I tried NDISWrapper once... it wasn't pretty.

Please direct your request to Linksys and/or Broadcom.

Probably we dont need to write any driver and config.. Try posting the results of lspci, so we may have any info. Probably there's a driver for your card available, you just need the right information to find it...

To which they'll reply: we can't write drivers for Linux because the kernel has no stable IEEE 801.11 core and its API changes on a weekly basis.
Anyways, wireless support in Linux is pretty much a nightmare. Only 2 to 3 year-old cards are supported. Not a single USB wireless card is supported in the kernel.
You really should write Linksys asking for their help, and indicate that future purchases will be influenced by driver support.
