Title: WooHoo Linux Drivers
Post by: Rara Avis on January 28, 2008, 01:46:25 PM

I don't own either device so I can not be certain they they are the real McCoy, but D-Link released today Linux drivers for the DWA-140 and WUA-1340!

I hope this is a sign of things to come.  A red letter day in anyone's book.

Has anyone out there tested these drivers and can tell me how well they are working for them, they looked like a little bit of a pain to use, but certainly better than a swift kick.

I have been using the NDISwrapper for my D-link needs in ubuntu.  almost all the 802.11N cards work using the win32 drivers from the dlinksupport site.    ;D

Yeah but Linux specific drivers are a solution not a band aid.  If you don't believe me then look at the reports for the difference between the bcm43xx drivers and NDISwrapper.

There are some drivers with source code available, Google for your chipset.
