    Do you guys remember Ndiswrapper? For when you had to use Windows drivers for your wireless card… Wonder if it’s still used.

      I used it not a week ago and spent a whole day failing miserably at getting the card to work before realizing that someone had a working Realtek driver on GitHub.

      It’s still around, and still painful.

    Woah… This brings back memories from when I was a noob trying out Suse and there were no packet managers and I was constantly dual booting widows to know which rpm packages to download and install manually, only to realize that it had dependencies.
