I searched for linux drivers for linksys wireles adapter I have, but I couldn't find any. Can I run the drivers through wine?

No, the card is probably made by broadcom anyway. Almost all linksys network adapters are. Is it a USB, PCI, PCMCIA, PCMCIA Express card?

Run "lsusb" to see which card it is and post it. Post the entire output if you need help identifying it.

That's cool, but we need to know what the actual model number is. For example, my wireless card's model number is a BCM4311. So if you run "lsusb" in a terminal you should see it listed there, along with your other USB devices.

The linksys model number, sure. But linksys probably didn't actually make that card. Most belkin network cards are made by broadcom as well. So we need to figure out who actually made it and what the real model number of the card is.
