Guest R@ndomH3ro Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Shai help a brother out on some online learning for Linux Mostly how to go through all the command shit and get it to do what I want it to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Ndiswrapper is one way if you have the drivers on a CD. It's a way for Windows wifi drivers to operate in Linux enviroments. It's confusing, but I know that it works if you stick with it. Sourceforge is a good place to check, also. That's just the way Linux is. I dealt with it, somehow. There's always a solution. Try http://www.linuxquestions.com as well. I sort of gave up on wifi in Linux. It just never worked the way I wanted it to. Sorry, that's just my honest opinion.

shai Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Oh, and for the command line stuff go to http://www.brunolinux.com and read as much as possible. I will say this- you can look forward to being totally confused for a while. Then one day, you will see the light and realize that UNIX is really the best OS ever, but you will also understand that you kind of have to have a love/hate relationship with it.. I'm only using TinyXP because I needed a break from Linux. I think I'll go back to Linux eventually, but for now I'm just happy to be learning something new.
