I am using the WG311V2 using TI chipset, there is a project at sourceforge
rewriting the driver for it to run under linux, I heard some of the people
got the WG311V2 working in linux in the 2.4 kernel, but when I try to
compile it in kernel 2.6 under mandrake 10, I just get compiling error!!!

Sorry the card I am using is a Dlink DWL-G650+ it's using an TI chipset.
What wireless card do you have? If its Orinoco/Lucent/Avaya/Agree you
need a patched driver or the new drivers*.
*There is a new driver which hasn't reached the kernel 0.15rc2
(current kernels have 0.13e). 0.15rc1 was meant to have monitor mode
but it hasn't worked for me, either has rc2.

The schmoo site has some info on how to patch 0.13e, but it doesn't
work for me. I went out and bought a PrismGT based chipset card, and
works fine with kismet, (I bought it thinking it was a prism2 card,
wanting to take advantage of the hostap drivers- which also have
better WPA support).

Knoppix has the patched driver if you would like to give that a thrash.
