Depends on your chipset really. I've run atheros cards in my laptops since 2001 using the madwifi project. As art also mentioned, ndisdrivers do work with ndiswrapper.

Now, the really interesting thing is that Atheros hired two of the main guys from the madwifi project, and have decided to open up their API to the open source community so that the madwifi (and the ath5k/ath9k) project will be included in the kernel and widely accepted. The ndisdriver's are also getting much more mature. In 2002, I used ndisdriver from Driverloader with a broadcom wireless card and it has worked fine for years. 2.6.27-rc1-mm1 fixes a rather longstanding bug with my nephew's atheros card. Small bug in the kernel with his ati card, otherwise he'd have compiz working and he could have a desktop that looked and acted just like a mac. His hda_intel sound card also has an issue which had a patch posted yesterday, but, that doesn't apply cleanly to his kernel, so, he's got to wait on that. Bet you can't tell I've been working on kernels for the last two days haha.

Art, have you considered selling it as an ebook, or do you have a publisher for it?

For me, a little more benchmarking, but, I believe I have most of the issues worked out on my latest bump in the road. Time to move on to the next step.

Cleo, you have the worst luck with illnesses in Florida. FanTC, I admire your spirit and hopefully the courts will go easy on you.

Have a good Tuesday everyone.

Happy Mid Day Tuesday everyone. Cleo hope that clears up quickly. Summer time colds/ infections suck.

No rain for us the last few days. But there was enough so that the water is at a constant 76' with a nice white haze LOL

Getting back into the swing of things, hoping to be fully swung by weeks end.

As for Fantasy Football yeah I just received my annual email to join a league Ive been in for 10+ years. I cannot wait. Is pre-season over yet? hehe

Be well!

Good morning everyone. I've just started a demand against some people I worked for in the past and never payed me...those fuckers! Now I want to make things fair and I want my money so I got a lawyer and started this.
Have a nice day.

Early afternoon everyone. Thought I already had posted a good morning. I'm a space cadet today. Really having a hard time moving forward. Just been chatting with people on IM and it's really slowing things down to a halt.

Crazy stuff there FanTC.

Now back to working...and more IMing.

Cheers.

I need some frickin sleep - less than 9 hours in the last three days. Had to install new OS on all the office machines because win2000 is no longer supported by our accounting software. Needless to say, there were a few glitches.

Now off to the bank and then I hope to hit the sack for a nap.

Howdy folks,

Had to work too hard today and really want to go to bed right now (9 PM). But I have to babysit my 5 months old nephew for a few hours. Darn it...
Well since he's not big enough to realize what porn looks like I might get some work done

Oh yeah, FanTC is my hero for today

Have a good one all!

Good Evening Guys...
It has been a shit fucking week starting on my Birthday. Someone I met who lost her husband about a year ago said the hardest things were the 1sts. The first Christmas, the first anniversary, the first Birthday...etc. I felt fine until my birthday on the 1st.

And then, my step son got married (again) on the 2nd. I was excited about it all week until that day. I kept thinking, "I am not supposed to be here alone". Vickie said over and over again, "I just want to live until the 2nd of August". And, to make matters worse, I promised her she would.

I had to leave before the wedding even started. It was a good thing too. When Vickie was feeling good, her and her son made a list of songs for them to dance to. The DJ, was never told to pull that list. He played it while Vickie's son, my step son, was dancing with his step mother.

Anyway...I feel like a baby. Why the fuck can't I get over this terrible thing? (Rhetorical question) But seriously, there are times I think it is time to pack up the Cadillac, throw the bikes in a trailer and just move as far away from here as possible. But there is really no way I could leave my children.

Oh yeah...my father, who did not go to the funeral and has called me once since that day, did not call me on my Birthday. Let me ask people with only one child, the only child or hell...any parent or anyone with a parent. How the hell does a father do that? And remember, when my mother died, I moved in with my father for 2 months to make sure he would be ok. I just don't get it at all.

So...I hope all of you have had a nice week so far

Jim, there are no easy answers, not that I necessarily think youre looking for any, but youve got the perfect place to vent. This board is full of friends that care for you. Hope each week gets better.
