Subject: [OS2Wireless] Wireless How-To

You know, for years, when I've had oddball stuff to do on Linux boxes, I 
have relied on the veritable treasure trove of "how-to's" written by actual 
users. This is something (I refer to the organization of such material) we 
have been sorely lacking since the days of the original WarpDoctor site 
(and this is not meant to detract in any way from the excellent ongoing 
work being done on the new WarpDoctor site).

>From recent exchanges, it appears that we really do need an 
all-encompassing how-to (and I do mean "all-encompassing," as so many folks 
seem utterly confused about how to even install a network driver, wireless 
or otherwise) for wi-fi setups.

I shall endeavor in some spare (stolen?) time this week to draft something, 
post it to the list for comments, and move it to the 2rosenthals.com 
knowledgebase. (which does allow for follow-up comments to be posted).

And yes, there is also a need for an updated, easily digested list of 
working card/driver combinations along with tips & tricks for configuring, 
as well as limitations. Jonas agrees that much of the current content needs 
updating and/or correcting.
