 +I've got a Sweex LW141 140 Mbps Nitro XM 11g+ pc-card and want to have it running on my secundary laptop running Kubuntu.
  
 +Using the Javelin ISL3886 chipset... It doesn't really work under Linux, i'm using the Ndiswrapper and all and not happy with how things look.
 +
 +Ok, that was too depressed... Despite the fact that ndiswrapper is a kinda dirty solution (I know, I should have bought a card with decent chipset) things are working now...
 +
 +I shouldn't have been so singleminded, using [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper|Ubuntu]] [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide|documentation]] provided enough information to get stuff running. I made the common error that resulted in "Another driver loads and binds to the device".
 +
 +/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.wifi with some islsm stuff helped with Kubuntu 6.06lts. 
 +
 +Followed instructions and used [[http://www.sweex.com/documents/LW141/1/LW141_Driver_All.zip|this driver]] worked like a charm!
