thank you.

1. Install the Wlan Driver Selector Applet from Extras-Testing repo

2. Select the applet on your desktop applet bar (with clock, battery, profile etc)

3. Select the option to download the file

4. MicroB browser will open and you have the option to select location for the download (choose "Nokia N900" if you want it in ~/MyDocs)

5. Extract the wl1251-maemo-0.1.tar.gz file (~140MB) to /home/user/MyDocs

in X-Terminal:

Code:

sudo gainroot
cd /home/user/MyDocs
tar -zxvf wl1251-maemo-0.1.tar.gz

6. Re-select the applet and point to the location of the driver:

MyDocs/wl1251-maemo/binary/compat-wireless.
