Ok, I didn't do that yet, but I've made some progress. I found a post one place stating the XP driver may not work and to try the other versions. I got the driver to install with no errors by using the Win2K driver instead of the XP driver. Here's what I get now...

lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0457:0163 Silicon Integrated Systems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
ndiswrapper -l
Installed drivers:
sis163u driver installed, hardware present


It looks like progress to me, but I still cant' seem to figure out how to get the device to connect to my wireless network. And the led on the adapter isn't on. Any ideas?
