Best way to get a handle on what you need for things like this is to reboot into the live cd and plug in the adapter. Then examine dmesg, lsmod and othr relevant sources of info to see what the live cd did. Make notes, replicate that on your gentoo system. Almost any other method really just comes down to firing in the dark and hoping you might hit something. -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
