Plz people i need help!! is there any way to this network card works ?

#5

You are right, it does not show... try

sudo modprobe sky2

in a terminal and see if it works.

If this fixes it then you need to add "sky2" to the bottom of your /etc/modules file.

I just got the gist of what you are doing here... Sorry IDK know how to help you. Maybe some other forums that address your hardware setup more specifically might be able to help you.
