have you tried these instructions:
QUOTE Instructions: $ unzip rtl8180_linuxdrv_v15_rh90.zip (The file I have is on a floppy) $ cd rtl8180_1.5 $ su //i.e.: become root $ make $ make install $ modprobe rtl8180_24x or if that doesn't work: $ insmod -f full_path_to rtl8180_24x $ iwpriv // that should give you at least a blank 'wlan0' or 'eth0' entry configure your network settings taken from - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/li...dwl-520-206718/ |

only problem is that that is a zip file, and not a .tar.bz2 file like I have. PLEASE HELP me. it already took me 2 days of burning 10 different cds to figure out what operating system would work on my computer. and linspire is the only that installed. now my problem is the internet, and i Have to do my schoolwork that is on my computer... but i cant get on the internet. I HATE LINUX... until i figure out how to fricking work my dlink dwl 520+ card.
