Hello, I have tried using linux for about 6 months now, and have been through dozens of distros. I have decided against dual booting, and just using a live CD for now. I picked Knoppix because of their so called exellent hardware detection, but I can't connect to the internet. I have this wireless card,
http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Sate...238277&pagename=Linksys/Common/VisitorWrapper
and some sort of linksys router.
I just want to be able to boot up and surf the net and use gaim, but it's useless. Please help.

Also, I've tried hwsetup, wlcardconfig, netcardconfig, and kwifimanager, but it still says no card connected. =(

Anymore questions just feel free to ask.
 
It looks like you'll have to use ndiswrapper with the card. And unless it's already installed on the livecd is going to be impractical as you would have to install and reconfigure ndiswrapper every boot with your windows wireless drivers.
