[Cialug] Netgear WG511 v2 -- SOLVED!

[Tim Wilson]

Some of you may remember that I've been trying to get a Marvell based
WG511 v2 wireless card working under Linux.  I tried several distros,
followed several different instructions, even tried it in other
people's laptops.  I finally have it working under OpenSuse 10.1.  It
has to be loaded with NDISWrapper, but it does work.  The instructions
I followed were actually for FC4 instead of Suse, but I skipped the
step for FC4, and a couple other steps since I copied the inf
directory out of Windows, and I installed NDISWrapper at install time.
 The trick seems to be a 16K stack instead of a 4K stack.  I'm
guessing OpenSuse has the 16K stack.  For anyone interested, here's
the URL to the instructions:

Unfortunately, I didn't allow enough disk space for everything, so I
might have to do the install all over again.  Maybe at the meeting
tomorrow night someone give me a hand so I don't have to re-install.
