yes, but we would need to know which card and which distro to be of more service

I have the Fedora Core 3 distro and a WMP54G adapter.

i guess if i would have thought about it, it really wouldn't have mattered which you had. i completely forgot about ndiswrapper. sometimes the cards have drivers written specifically for linux, altho it does not appear linksys did that with your card. ndiswrapper should take care of it for you

Be sure to check out the wiki:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page

This page has a successful configuration about halfway down the page for a WMP54G and FC3

HTH :)
