Has anybody had any luck working wirelessly with a USB adapter under Mandrake Linux (or, more spefically, any Linux distribution with a Netgear WG121 USB adapter).
On a dual boot machine, the wireless adapter works fine under Windows XP Home SP2.
On the same machine, I have had success using a Linuxant Prism 54 chipset driver, which changed the status of the the adapter from unpowered and not communicating with the network to powered and transferring data (based on the 2 LEDs on the adapter).
During this process, the Linux side also promoted for and located the exisitng Windows drivers.
The adapter clearly seems to think it's connected to the router...but Mandrake hasn't got the word yet. No answer to this question after a week on their forums....
