Well, I've been away for awhile but still haven't gotten that MA401 wireless card working. I've tried the instructions directly from netgear and I get the following when I try to make config:

Linux source directory [/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-20.9]:

The kernel source tree is version 2.4.20-20.9.
WARNING: .config not present in kernel source tree. This will
screw up modversions detection and build optimizations.
Is this a RedHat kernel? Workarounds enabled.
For an optimized build, copy over the relevent file from
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-20.9/configs/ to /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-20.9/.config

pcmcia-cs source tree /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-20.9/.conf/ is incomplete or missing!
The wlan driver for pcmcia cannot be built without
the pcmcia-cs source tree present and configured.

Configuration failed

make: *** [config] Error 1
[root@localhost linux-wlan-ng-0.1.15]#
[root@localhost linux-wlan-ng-0.1.15]#

Which directory should I use, and why does it have the spelling wrong initially of cocnfigs when it's spelled right in my directory tree?

If this isn't going to be fixed soon, I need to get another card that works straight out of the box. Any recommendations?

Thanks
