Hi,

I appreciate your help. You know, this is an old laptop that came with windows. This is the kind of deal windows make with some manufacturers so that the os comes with the drivers of the manufacturer that was made for windows. When I formated my pc and I reinstalled windows (lost the original one) it did not detect it either. I had to download the driver even for windows. But in the manufacturers site  I did not find anything for linux (http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us).
Here  is the info of my wifi card:

WL-159g 802.11bg (USB2.0 WLAN)
Manufacturer : ASUSTek Computer, Inc.
ASUS A9 Series (A9T) (notebook)

But i'm quite sure that a lot of other manufacturers do not provide drivers for linux. How linux do for recognizing those devices anyway?

Thank you again
