Yellow Dog Linux

Hi I'm a noob so go easy on me . Anywho, I've got a Atmel chipset based USB wireless adapter (specifically the MacWireless 11b USB Wireless adapter: http://macwireless.com/html/products/11 ... 1bUSB.html - not the USB stick), I believe there's a way to get Atmel based USB wireless adapters to get to work, I am using YellowDog Linux 3.0.1 and am using the KDE gui, how would I go about setting up my wireless adapter for use on my network and surfing the web? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I did a quick google seach and came up w/ the following drivers and a how-to the links are as follows OSS atmel driver sourceforge based atmel driver and the how-to atmel howto (i didnt have time to read through the howto-do be warned)

yeah, I've looked at those before and me being a n00b I have failed to do all of those...mainly because I can't figure out how to get my kernels source which I guess are on my cds somewhere and other times it just gives me a million errors when I try to compile 'em...any n00b help would be greatly appreciated...thanks

honestly I've had a lot of problems compiling drivers for linux kernels. The easiest way to know the kernel source is there is to get it from kernel.org and compile your own. Im currently running 2.6.9 (became offical a couple of days ago) and as to the errors if you could post them here; someone maybe able to pt. out whats going wrong.
