Notes

* Can't tell whose fault it is, but when listening and in the meanwhile recording, frequency of recorded sounds is approximatly a half of real. I noticed it on Audacity, recording while listening to recorded tracks. It happens every time. Seems like data input rate is a half of what the driver expects.

** the modem monitor asks me for the modem port; I try the automatic recognizing, it doesn't work

*** Onestly I don't find a difference when I do it under Window, except an icon appearing on taskbar; I say "no" just because nothing appears in dmesg

**** I will verify this information

********** Time to upade some informations on this page To use minipci wifi card some "magic" must be done - follow this instrucion http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/MiniPCI - workd perfect form me. reply from Toobaz: NO - thanks for the hint but I think something like this is the right way to do things: http://www.marvec.org/amilo/ (at the moment, it's for the wrong computer :-/ )
