I'm trying to figure out how to set up my wireless card on my laptop, using WPA-PSK. I just installed Mandrivia Limited Edition 2005 (Or mandrake 10.2) when I go through the mandrake control center to set up my DLink DWL 650, (using the ndiswrapper and the latest drivers from dlink for windows) my messages log looks like this: Jun 4 19:45:42 old-laptop drakconf.real[22054]: ### Program is starting ### Jun 4 19:53:21 old-laptop drakconnect[24184]: running: /sbin/modprobe ath_pci
