[edit] Configuration
[edit] Wireless Configuration
This section describes how to install drivers and set up the D-Link AirPlus DWL-G650 Cardbus Adapter through the PCMCIA slot. If you use a different wireless card, stop reading now.
Major issues:
- System hangs on reboot after volumes are remounted read-only. Power-off works fine. (ACPI/APM problem?)
- Video card doesn't want to play nicely in X.org, with either nVidia's proprietary driver (6629 or higher) or X.org's generic nv driver.
