A while back I purchased a wireless USB adaptor for my notebook, a DLink 
GA-122.  Works very well with the windows driver and while there appears to 
be a Linux driver for it, I haven't a clue how to install it and even then 
there may be two packages to download and install.  Life is so-o confusin. 
The Dlink is nice, comes with an extension cord and a stand so it doesn't 
have to be at floor level plugged into the desktop case.

Can anyone suggest a USB [ is dongle the word?] unit that will work with the 
current 2.6.17 kernels?  If it is generally available, that would be a help, 
I have no wish to go downtown to the College St area that some of you love so 
well.  Factory Direct would be nice,  :-) but I have many computer shops 
along Kennedy Rd in Scarborough.  Incidentally, one of the shops with good 
prices [Canada Computers] is almost ready with a new big store with ample 
parking on Kennedy south of Ellesmere. The old White Rose Nurseries bldg.
