I've seen others here asking about USB network adapters. I would suggest you search the forums.

Don't know what else to suggest as I have never used USB with Linux.

If I remember correctly, I used this adapter once on Mandrake 7. I would suggest hitting the IRC channels, I beileve someone sent me the stuff for it on #2600 on efnet

Hi,

I'm also searching for those drivers but cant seem to locate them.

Can you give the general location (ex :device supported)

ps: didn't see Linksys USb adapter there?
