Hi,
I'm trying to get running just a simple WLAN-connection with SL 10.1 RC2
(and older) but I have no success :-(
Hardware is an IBM ThinkPad T22 and installation is a Gnome-system.
First I tried two D-Link-Cardbus-Cards (DWL-G650, DWL-AG660) which are
not recognized at all (possibly you're able to get them running with
ndiswrapper or whatever, but it should run mostly out of the box with SL
10.1).
Then I tried a SMC 2835W (Part-No. 99-012084-295) that looks quite good,
the card is recognized, I can set my encryption and after putting the
firmware into the correct directory (/lib/firmware/isl3890) it seems to
work (Link-LED is on, ACT-LED sometimes).
But I don't get an ip-connection, I tried it on two accesspoints (both
FritzBox Phon/WLAN but with different configurations), without security,
with WEP and with WPA-PSK but it's not working.
The log tells me the following:

Then I tried a Belkin 802.11b F5D6020 ver. 2 and an ARtem Onair ComCard
11, but they are not working too, log-file for both PC-Cards:

Any ideas? Thanks a lot,
