Whoopee!!!!

Got to share this 'cos am well pleased.  Grin
Been trying to get my SiS163u wireless card working in Ubuntu. Had got the driver installed but getting the No Hardware Found thing. Googled it to death but no luck.
Downloaded the XP drivers onto a USB stick day or so ago and had another go with Windows Wireless Drivers utility. This time I rooted around and found a Windows '98 .inf driver and bingo - the network manager started to do it's circling bit and I knew straight away that it had triggered something.
Now taken out the USB dongle and it's all up and running.

Thanks for that Strat - suppose that I am just showing off really, although you never know, if someone else has the same problem and googles it, my solution might work for them.
