Install a pci

With 'lspci -v' I obtain this:

0000:00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212
802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
Subsystem: Unknown device 1948:3a99
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11
Memory at ed800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

It's a Nilox PCI wireless card.

How can I use it with Debian 3.1 Sarge ?

Follow the age old rule: Pick the software, then pick the hardware.

I have no idea how to use it with debian, but it uses the madwifi
driver, if you can find any refernces to that.

Jerry

yes, I think the solution is the madwifi drivers. My PCI Card isn't
listed in the compatible architecture but I'll try. Thanks.
