Linux and WiFi

How do I connect to my home network(802.11b)
using Novell SUSE LINUX 10.1?
I have a HP KAYAK XU/550X running Novell SUSE LINUX 10.1
and Windows XP.
Can I install and connect my
USB LinkSYS Wireless-B (Model WUSB11v4) Network Adapter?
How do I install and connect this Network Adapter?

Do you have any suggestions?
Thank You
Bob Whitman

Re: Linux and WiFi

usb wifi sticks mostly use the zd1211 chipset, drivers can be found here:

http://zd1211.ath.cx/ and http://sourceforge.net/projects/zd1211

it is now by default also in 2.6.19 (but suse probably doesn't use that kernel yet).
