ASUS WiFi @ Home

[leebobs 0]

I have a P4P800-Deluxe, one of the best selling P4 MB's in europe. But for the life of me, I can't get most of the Hardware on this bugger working under Linux.

 

I am searching for drivers for:

1. The Wi-Fi @ Home Card. VITAL

2. The Gigabit Lan.

3. The VIA RAID Controler.

 

Its not exactly a new board , does anyone know of the whereabouts of the drivers?

 

Thankz

What distro and version are you using?

 

Take a look at the following linux pages about you board;

a little more information about the MB would help.

 

What's the output from /sbin/lspci ? (cut and paste into reply, please)

 

In the meantime, do a "linux p4p800-deluxe" google search, and also have a look

at this linuxquestions thread

The motherboard is incompatable with FC2, so I went to SUSE 9.1.

 

The motherboards details can be found here:

Here is the important Wi-Fi @ Home section:

Thanks for any help you can give me...

the info from the board manufacturer is nice, but the info from a running Linux kernel

is more helpful than specs to figure out what's going on with your system.

 

How's SUSE 9.1 working out for you?

 

What's the output from /sbin/lsmod and /sbin/lspci ?

Your in luck. I just got the wifi@home working in fedora core 2. I am currently writing the how to and will post the drivers to my groups website. www.linux-militia.net . Check over there this week and I should have a complete step by step how to for you.
