First experience with OpenSUSE

Yesterday I downloaded and have run OpenSUSE Live CD. Unfortunately, it will not recognise my dlink DWL-G550 PCI (which is not unusual).

If also has not recognised my 250Mb Pen drive/ Bluetooth.

However on checking the device out further it has been somehow disconnected without unmounting which means it needs to be formatted to function properly.
Cheers,
Al.

hi are you have any experience with linux or opensuse is first your linux distribution?
i google for your card and found that your card based on atheros chipset… the common way to make this work is madwifi drivers Atheros madwifi - openSUSE
also this hardware could work with ndiswraper (with windows drivers) SDB:Ndiswrapper - openSUSE
and last atheros has there own proprietary drivers for linux but this afaik for money…
i has no any of this but my friends is working with such cards… i am not shure is them exactly G550 but some like this…

describe your expirience here please…
