[Quantian-general] Centrino wireless?

[Gary]

I can't get Quantian to work my wireless.

My Thinkpad T41 is a Centrino machine (Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 3B).  I 
know that there  have been  Linux/Centrino issues in the past; I know 
that drivers now exist, and ndiswrapper is available.  I've poked around 
the Knoppix sites a bit ... no luck yet, so I thought I'd ask here.

There's a KDE app ... name is something like kwifisetup.  It sees 
signal, tells me that the signal strength is tops, and even finds the 
name of my wireless network.  But no other activity works.  Ping finds 
nothing.

Any pointers?

I've tried ndiswrapper, but the files I point it to aren't recognized as 
valid. Not sure what's up with that.

BTW, the VMware browser demo works the wireless just fine.
