D-Link 802.11 Wireless Lan card on Powerbook

[Bernard mentink]

Hi Neill,

Thanks for your config.opts file. I did try it, but unfortunatly got a 
kernel oops with those settings. One of the memory ranges seems to be 
the problem. error message on insertion of card is:

I will try commenting out the memory range 0c0000-0xfffff in the config 
file and see if it works .......

By the way, what config settings did you use for your Orinoco card?

Cheers,
Bernie
