I've installed MintPPC Linux on my indigo iBook, and I've had a couple problems with Internet. The CD Drive is broken, so OS X is not an option. I'm trying to connect to WPA with my AirPort card, and I had the exact same problem as the guy in this forum:</span></font><div style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 10pt; "><span><a target="_blank" href="http://www.mintppc.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=446">http://www.mintppc.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=446</a></span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 10pt; "><br></div><div style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',

I was standing about 5 feet away, and it shows about 5 other networks(Not greyed out). It works when I connect using the Internet cable, though. Is there any way I could fix this? I use WPA personal, by the way, and my Linux distro supports that.</span></font></div></div></body></html>
