I have a similar laptop, mine is the 5002 wlmi, and it too uses a turion

come with windows?
yes xp pro
I had a lot of trouble getting my wifi working. there are a few factors
that make things more difficult (like trying to use the windows 32 bit
driver with 64 bit OS (ubuntu breezy AMD64)). You will likely need
ndiswrapper to load your windows wifi adapter driver. If you are using a
64 bit OS, things will get more complicated, unless your computer
shipped with a 64 bit driver. I experimented with 6 different drivers,
until I found one that worked.
had a friend in New jersey install mandriva and he also could not get
ndiswrapper to work
but then he was getting pressed for time.Should I be looking for a
windows dll file to wrap ?
any chance of some help at my place installing ?
will be leaving early Monday,probaly to the east coast
