well, they were sold out of the a215-s5808 so she went with this unit (A205-S5809). installing Debian was quick and far easier than i had imagined (given recent snags with the HP). Seriously, this was one of the easiest laptop installs i have ever done... and did i mention quick?

other than the modem (which i don't have a way to test) I need to get the wireless going. it uses a Realtek driver and i haven't been able to pinpoint which one i need nor a great linux candidate. i am not opposed to using ndiswrapper, but i need to know which driver to install.

can anyone help with this? so far dmesg doesn't show any wlan devices and i _really_ need this part to work for her.

thanks again.
Preston
