    Help Installing A Network Driver

    Hello, I recently added Linux Mandrake to my computer and I need to know how to install a driver (for a wireless USB network device). I downloaded the Linux driver from HERE for my ORiNOCO USB Client Silver and cannot simply understand the readme. Could somebody please help me get this driver installed so I can connect to the Internet through that PC?

    Thank you,
    einvoid

    Welcome to JustLinux, einvoid!!!





    You'll need to compile the driver before you can use it. Have you successfully compiled your own kernel? If not, you'll probably need to do that too. Let us know if you need any help.

    Spock: Captain, it doesn't appear in the symbol table.
    Kirk: Then it's of external origin?
    Spock: Affirmative.
    Kirk: Mr. Sulu, go to pass two.
    Sulu: Aye aye, sir, going to pass two.
