Intel Wifi Link 5100

[Fito]

Friends,

I have a Dell Studio with an Intel wifi Link 5100. Elive can't
recognize it. (Elive Compiz 1.9.27)

I was searching the Linux drivers for the card and I found the
following at: http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/

Note: The iwlwifi driver has been merged into mainline kernel since
2.6.24. If you are using kernels after this release, please use the
intree (drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi) driver directly. After 2.6.26
the intree driver iwlagn also supports the new 5100BG, 5100ABG,
5100AGN, 5300AGN and 5350AGN series hardwares.

Any suggestions? (I'm available to do some testing if needed)

Thanks

Fito

Have you tried ndiswrapper?

[Fito]

Yes. with no sucess..a lot of error messages...

Note: Ubuntu works perfect without ndiswrapper..

Post the error messages here. They should say what's wrong and lead to a fix.

Probably a different kernel. Although Ubuntu is based on Debian and
uses .deb's it's still not Debian.
