Hi,
I bought a P5E3 MB with embedded wifi chipset. I was assuming the installation of drivers will be piece of cake as splashtop is able to use the wifi.
Anyway, my distro is not able to recognize the wifi chipset (mandriva 2008.1 w/ 2.6.24 kernel).
The asus installation CD is providing with some linux drivers: r8187, rt2870.
first one does not work (it is integrated in the kernel now) and I did not succeed to compile the second one.
On the other hand, looking on hardware websites, it seems that the chipset is not ralink but AzureWave AW-NA830.
I am getting lost.
Does someone succeed to make the wifi on asus P5E3?
How ???
Thanks in advance for your help.
