Has anyone been successful in configureing the Orinoco Gold B/G wireless card under Knoppix?

My friend has some sort of generic wilress card. I can place it in the laptop and use it. With the Orinoco, no luck.

When typing the following

dmesg | grep eth1

I get nothing. Do I have to create an entry for eth1 under /dev?

Typing iwconfig



cmmiller@Probot:~$ iwconfig

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.





...and here is what I have loaded module wise in my kernel.


cmmiller@Probot:~$ lsmod
