Yay! I win I win!

anyways... the .tar.gz files are likely source code for you to compile, if you dont know how feel free to ask... i dont want to explain it if u do. just pick the file that's description fits you the best and compile it.

If it contains a binary... try executing it.

Usually a readme is included in there anyways...

Siplus:
ok, first: it is x86. i have 2 computers: both have win2k and redhat9 (only the laptop is wireless right now though)

there are 3 files in the linux subdirectory of the cd though:

an install guide, sorta:
http://www.geocities.com/siplus01/files/ma401ins.txt
pcmcia-cs-3.1.24.tar
linux-wlan-ng-0.1.7.tar

i wish they had a binary.

when i first tried to ./configure one of the files, it said it couldn't find the source directory or something...

i would welcome any help...i'm stll kinda new to linux cause i just started using it again.

I dont suppose I could be much help on here, if you want to contact me on aim or something and have me ssh in i can see what i can do... i suck at explaining things though.

OK sorry i did not see this sooner but i may be able to help alot. I also am on wireless and use linux. I run Red Hat 8 though. I have set up wireless in RH9 with ease though. First i would need to know if the chip is prism2 based? If it is i would goto Linux Wirless Drivers and check out the readme and FAQ. In the FAq the is an address for a site that has rpm's which will make your life much easyer then trying to compile from source.

Siplus:
how do i find if it is prism2 based or not?
