dlink dwl120+ adapter driver for kubuntu 8.04

[flecktor]

hi all,

i got an adapter with drivers for windows. the windows worked fine with the adapter.

when i tried to extract the drivers (inf file) from the installation, i found out it has a cab there we not openable with zip nor 7z.

i looked over google, and it said that the adapter worked perfectly out of the box with kubuntu 6.04.

i am in a search for a driver and a small manual to install the adapter.

can anyone help? (the adapter is "VER A1" if anyone asks).

P/NWL120+EU.A1
FCC ID: KA2DWL-120PLUS

thanks.

I believe there is a Kubuntu package to extract files from cabs. Open Adept and search on

cab

or

cabextract

. But in the meantime, it might be useful to know the actual chip that the device uses. Open a Konsole and enter

lspci -v

and look for the "Network Controller" entry. If it's a USB device, make sure it's plugged in and enter

sudo lsusb -v

. Place the output in a code box here.

sudo should run on any *buntu platform. Just requires the user password.

Re: dlink dwl120+ adapter driver for kubuntu 8.04

sorry i wasn't yet near the computer , however, i tried to

cabextract data1.cab

which gave:
data1.cab: WARNING; found InstallShield header. This is probably an InstallShield file. Use UNSHIELD (http://synce.sf.net) to unpack it.
data1.cab: no valid cabinets found

All done, errors in processing 1 file(s)

according to this site :
http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_p...andname=D-Link
the chip is :
802.11b DWL-120+ USB TI green Tx power 15 dBm; 256-bit WEP; development: http://acx100.sourceforge.net/
