Internal WLAN Card in HP Laptop

#1 (**permalink**) 12-Dec-2005, 19:36

I have a HP ze2108wm laptop. I just installed SUSE this morning and it
recognized everything EXCEPT the internal wireless lan card. How can I fix
this?

The first thing is to make sure the wireless lan card is being found.
Check the results of an 'lspci -v'. You should see a wireless lan entry.
If you do, send the entry for it. If it was not found, send the entire
output of the lspci command.

I bought the HP ze2308wm laptop (the "Black Friday" special). Same thing
happened to me.

I wound up using ndiswrapper and the windows drivers for the wireless card.

Worked like a charm. :-)
