W200 on Linux

[Michael Hogeveen]

Hi, i have the same problem with my evo n1005v with W200 module. Since i bought this (hard to get) thing in holland this must be Orinoco based. prism2 doesnt work for me, dont ever see a light show up. I hope there will be a solution for this. Im using Suse 8.2 pro, and it runs so much faster then WindowsXP.

I have already contacted Compaq/HP about this, but i dont have a mail back yet. I know what answer i get already (no support for linux, its designed for WindowsXP, but the more people mail them, the faster they wil realize that they have to take Linux serious.

I wonder if anyone saw this page:

I hope someone with a W200 in europe can figure out if this is a solution.

Bye for now :)
