As i have finished my final project reports and submit them, my only activity is waiting for the final decision whether i graduate or not. Meanwhile, right now i’m busy configuring my new laptop, installed with Slackware 10.1 to detect the WLAN device. In Mandriva, the process will be easier, since it has included a driver and also ndiswrapper that can use Windows driver, but in Slackware, it has to be done manually.

I have found the driver, thanks to Josh Sinambela, but…. it has to use Kernel 2.6.3+ and Slackware comes with 2.4.29 by default, even though Kernel 2.6.10 is included in testing directory. Let see if i can configure the WLAN module.
